About Tortillas
Tortillas are a staple food originating from Mexican cuisine, traditionally made from corn or wheat flour, water, and salt. Corn tortillas, crafted from masa harina, have been a cultural and nutritional cornerstone for centuries, while wheat tortillas have gained popularity globally for their soft, versatile texture. Low in fat and cholesterol, they are a good source of carbohydrates, providing energy, and corn tortillas deliver notable dietary fiber, magnesium, and plant-based protein. Whole wheat tortillas contain additional fiber and micronutrients compared to their refined counterparts. However, some commercially produced tortillas may include added fats, preservatives, or sodium, which could pose challenges for heart health if consumed excessively. Tortillas are highly adaptable, serving as a base for tacos, wraps, quesadillas, and more, making them a foundation for diverse, nutritious meals when paired with lean proteins, vegetables, and healthy fats like avocado.
