A Tortilla Sandwich is a versatile and satisfying meal combining elements of Mexican and global cuisine. It typically features a soft tortilla, often made from wheat or corn, folded or rolled around a variety of fillings. Common ingredients include lean proteins such as chicken, turkey, or beans, fresh vegetables like lettuce, tomatoes, and peppers, and healthy fats from avocado or low-fat cheese. Seasonings like salsa or spices add flavor while controlling calorie content. Originating from traditional Mexican cooking, this sandwich has become a fusion dish enjoyed worldwide. On the healthier side, it offers fiber from the tortilla and vegetables, essential nutrients from proteins, and heart-healthy fats. However, variations with excessive creamy sauces, fried fillings, or large portions of cheese can increase calorie and fat intake. Opting for whole-grain tortillas and balanced fillings creates a nutritious and delicious meal perfect for lunch or dinner.
