  • 1 cup no-salt added diced tomatoes
  • 1 Tbsp. Knorr® Granulated Tomato with Chicken Bouillon
  • 3 Tbsp. olive oil, divided
  • 1 package (19 oz.) arepas, cut into 24 wedges
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 3 ounces chopped chorizo (about 3/4 cup)
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups egg substitute
