Tortillas - what's better and what can you handle?

[lecheek 0]

I come from a HUGE Mexican/Italian family and they love to cook traditional food. I have done good as far as finding substitutions for the Italian food, but there are just some Mexican dishes where you need a tortilla. What is the best one? Whole wheat or corn? What do you find works best ad far as settling in your pouch?

I eat carb balance tortilla by mission. I have no problems w/it.

I use it mainly to make turkey roll ups for lunch.< /p>

I've tried Mission's Carb Balance, La Banderita's Fat-Free Soft Taco Tortillas, and La Tortilla Factory's Low Carb Whole Wheat Tortillas. I have tolerated all three just fine. I use them to make chicken tacos and turkey wraps. La Tortilla Factory is what my nutritionist recommended, but it was a bit too hard and crunchy for me.

As far as choosing one over the other, I look for the best balance between carbs, fat, and Protein. Since they're almost all low in fat and Protein, the decision usually goes to whoever has the lowest carbs while still looking soft and yummy.

Mission's Carb Balance works for me. Very satisfying and slow to digest.
