I stopped keeping them around, as they were almost always made with low
fiber white flour.

Found a "low carb, low fat" brand and tried it, and was pleasantly
surprised. They were very tender, very moist and fresh. 81 calories, 11
carbs, 5 grams protein, 2 grams fat, 6 grams fiber. NO cholesterol, no
transfats. That's a huge nutritional improvement over regular flour
tortillas. The first ingredient is water, the second whole wheat. They also
contain oat and soy fiber and lecithin. There are several brands, the only
one I tried was from "Ole Mexican Foods," called "La Banderita." They are a
little more expensive than regular because you get 8 instead of 10
tortillas. But at $2, still a deal.

My husband likes burritos and soft tacos filled with different things. I
like to make leftover beef and pork in to "taco meat," and yesterday I had
scrambled eggs with salsa and melted cheddar in a tortilla, it was
wonderful.
