In this sense, it can also be a good alternative for breakfast, because you can accompany them with eggs, cheese or ham.
Although this is a European recipe of French origin, several countries make it by admitting varieties on their own, either sweet or savory, and creatively preparing their filling, which allows using many ingredients such as meats, vegetables, fruits, or vegetables. In my particular case, I prefer them with a stuffed chicken, vegetables, and I loved to bathe them with a cheese sauce, which adds an exquisite flavor.
