Dining out spares people from using up the last of their paper plates or incinerating the last of their paper ovens. Reduce your disposable-cookware footprint with today's Groupon: for $19, you get 12 empanadas at Maye's Desserts in Bonita (up to a $42 value).

Maye's Desserts & Bistro titillates taste buds with an expansive selection of empanadas stuffed with meats, veggies, and sweets. Hearty chorizo empanadas, packed with ground pork and beef, chili seasoning, potatoes, and pepper jack cheese, can take residence inside patrons' buttoned bellies and line stomach walls with flaky pastry and framed photos of their grandchildren. Maws can explore the spicy depths of the cream cheese- and mozzarella-filled jalapeño popper variety before, after, or while munching on the Greek empanada's mishmash of spinach, parmesan, mushroom, and feta cheese. Dessert empanadas such as the manzana, crammed with apples, cinnamon, sugar, and nutmeg, are an ideal way to end the oral slaying of these golden-brown bites.
