About Medium tortilla
The medium tortilla is a versatile flatbread originating from Mexican cuisine and is a staple in dishes like tacos, burritos, and wraps. Traditionally made from corn or wheat flour, tortillas contain simple ingredients such as flour, water, salt, and fat, often in the form of vegetable oil or lard. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free and provide essential nutrients like fiber, magnesium, and B vitamins, while wheat tortillas offer slightly higher protein content. Medium-sized tortillas are typically portion-controlled, making them suitable for various meals. However, commercially produced tortillas may contain preservatives or added sodium, so it's best to check labels when purchasing. While tortillas are relatively low in fat and calories, fillings and toppings significantly impact their overall nutritional value. Opting for whole-grain or corn varieties can enhance their health benefits as part of a balanced meal.
