About Burrito shell
The burrito shell, traditionally made from soft flour tortillas, serves as the foundational wrap for one of Mexico’s most popular culinary creations—the burrito. Crafted with wheat flour, water, oil, salt, and leavening agents, the shell is light, malleable, and perfect for encasing flavorful fillings. While its origins lie in Mexican cuisine, burrito shells have become versatile staples in many global adaptations of the dish. Nutritionally, they are a source of carbohydrates and provide energy, but their healthiness depends on factors like portion size and ingredient choices. Whole wheat versions offer higher fiber content and improved nutritional benefits compared to regular flour tortillas, supporting digestion and sustained energy. However, regular burrito shells can be high in calories and sodium and may contain unhealthy fats depending on preparation. For a balanced meal, pairing them with nutrient-rich fillings like lean proteins, vegetables, and beans is recommended.
