About Mission corn shells

Mission Corn Shells are a delicious and versatile option rooted in the rich tradition of Mexican cuisine. Made primarily from ground corn, these shells offer an authentic taste and texture ideal for tacos, tostadas, and other dishes. Each shell typically contains a blend of corn flour, water, and a hint of lime, creating a naturally gluten-free product that caters to diverse dietary needs. They are relatively low in calories and fat, making them a lighter choice for meals. Corn shells provide a modest source of fiber, promoting healthy digestion, but should be enjoyed in moderation as they may include added preservatives or stabilizers. Pairing them with fresh vegetables, lean proteins, and nutrient-packed toppings can enhance their health benefits. Whether you’re crafting traditional Mexican recipes or experimenting with global flavors, Mission Corn Shells are a convenient and flavorful base for your culinary creations.
