                                While one empanada may be a serving size for nutritional labeling purposes, a satisfying meal for an adult often consists of two to four empanadas. The optimal portion depends on a variety of factors, including the empanada's size, filling, and its role in the meal, which can be confusing for home cooks and party planners.
