    just made these and as everyone else has pointed it they are about 60 cals each - they are like the mini tortilla's rather than full sized ones but will do for me and they look good

    It will be nice to try and make these as there is a big calorie difference to the shop bought packs. Thanks!!

    Just made these and they taste good; they just taste like normal tortillas; as other people have said though, they're very small (like mini tortillas) so you might want to double the recipe if you want a normal size!
    Thanks for posting

    I use corn tortillas that are 28 calories each. If you buy really good, super-thin ones they don't crack when you try to roll them up around things, and they make nice quesadillas. Plus, they are pre-made and not expensive.

    ETA: The ones I buy are 6.25" in diameter.

    How do you know if you are getting a good one? I have tried corn tortillas before and always seem to get ones that crack or break. My hubby doesn't like eating the messing ones, yet I think they are healthier. Can you tell me a brand that doesn't do that or is it the way they are cooked? How do you use them? Do you use them as taco shells or only as a baked dish like enchilda?

    What the heck does "bump" mean??

    I had to ask before as well. It simply means that the person wants to see it in their topics at a later time.

    The corn tortillas I use are from a family-owned company called Perez. I don't know how widely available they are. They are a great deal thinner and smoother in texture than your average corn tortilla. I use them for quesadillas, enchiladas, tostadas, etc. They make awesome baked tortilla chips or strips. It might just be a matter of trying out some local brands to see if you find one that works well for you.

    Thanks for explaining better. I appreciate it. I love eating Mexican food and hubby does as well. He just doesn't like getting messy. Now that you've told me what to look for, we'll give corn tortillas a try again. I'll look around and see if any of the stores here sell Perez brand.
