Huaraches

Huarache means Sandal.
The sandals used in Mexico are made of leather, both the sole and the straps.
In this case the item in the picture is Huarache de bisteck, which is a long very thick tortilla with beans in the middle. The name comes from the similarity with a sandal's sole, it´s the same shape, size and color. Funny!

After it's cooked some salsa is added, cream and white shreaded cheese.

They are easily stackable to have them ready for the rush hour when everybody is hungry and not willing to wait for them to be hand made and cooked.
