Baked tortillas are a lighter alternative to traditional fried tortillas, commonly used in Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine. Made from corn or flour, they are baked instead of fried, which reduces their fat content while retaining their signature crispness and flavor. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free and a good source of fiber, magnesium, and essential nutrients, while flour tortillas provide a soft texture and slightly higher calorie content. Baking eliminates the need for added oils, making them a healthier option for tacos, enchiladas, or chips. However, sodium levels in packaged tortillas can be high, so opting for homemade or low-sodium varieties can enhance their nutritional value. When paired with fresh ingredients like lean proteins, vegetables, and healthy fats, baked tortillas can be part of a balanced and satisfying meal.
