Whole-Wheat Tortilla

Whole-Wheat Tortilla is a flatbread commonly used in Mexican and Tex‑Mex cuisine and is popular worldwide as a wrap for fillings or as a base for tacos and quesadillas. It’s typically made from whole-wheat flour in this version, giving it a heartier texture and nuttier flavor than refined flour tortillas. As a food, it delivers a meaningful amount of fiber (6.8g per 100g), which helps with digestion and can increase satiety. It also contributes modest protein and provides minerals such as manganese and selenium alongside B‑vitamins like niacin. Nutritionally, the whole‑wheat tortilla is a better choice than refined white tortillas because of the extra fiber and micronutrients, but many commercial wraps are processed and can contain added salt and other additives, so ingredient lists are worth checking.
