About Wheat tortilla shells

Wheat tortilla shells are a soft, thin flatbread made primarily from wheat flour, water, salt, and a small amount of fat, such as oil or shortening. With roots in Mexican cuisine, they are a versatile staple used in dishes like tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and wraps. Wheat tortillas are an alternative to corn tortillas, offering a milder flavor and a smooth, pliable texture. Nutritionally, they provide carbohydrates for energy and small amounts of fiber, depending on the type of flour used. Whole wheat versions are a healthier choice, as they often contain more fiber and nutrients than their refined counterparts. However, some commercially made wheat tortillas may include additives or higher fat content, especially in processed varieties. Choosing whole wheat or minimally processed options supports balanced eating. Enjoy them as part of a nutritious meal paired with lean protein, vegetables, and healthy fats.
