found those MISSION lo carb tortillas... the BIG burrito size.... uh oh... i have the la tortilla kind that are small and only three carbs... but these badboys could spell trouble,,,*L* they LOOKED like real regular tortillas.. and they tasted pretty darn good with cheddar cheese and jalapenos as a cheese crisp.. how scary is THIS...*L*

i am thinking they would be great as burritos for breakfast or another meal.. cause i cant seem to make a burrito with those smaller tougher textured ones.. but i better do it in moderation..eh?

I haven't found those yet, but just a caution: I hear they contain hydrogenated fats. Read the label. If they do, you might want to consider going back to La Tortilla Factory ones. (sorry to burst your bubble )

thanks BP.. (bubblepopper).. i will check the pkg when i get home from work..
wouldnt bother me too bad tho.. tried em as a burrito with shredded chicken breast/franks hotsauce/bellpeppers and onions... didnt taste as good as i had hoped..(the tortilla that is.)
i guess i got used to the 3 carb ones... :-)
ANYWHO.. i also got another kind that were 3 or 5 carbs... gonna try them sometime later...
also.. the size of the big one turned out to be a bit more than i really wanted to eat..

I have been seeing them in various LC types, there are the wheat, the half wheat fajita sized and the smaller fajita sized. They all run from 5 grams - 10 grams of carbs. I pick and choose wisely, i usually use the larger wheat ones for my wraps, but the smaller ones I use sparingly, a few a week, with chorizo and eggs, or sometime I made quesadillas. I was thinking of making nacho's with them, cutting them up and either frying or baking them, topping them with cheese, soy black beans and LOTS of jalapenos. I wonder has anyone tried this yet? I have the La Tortilla and the Mission brand of tortillas.

Take it from me.......Buy the smallest size. They are wonderful, so wonderful that it would be easy to go overboard. The smallest size helps to keep portions in control.
