The 40 Calorie Flour Tortilla

I made some home made guacamole to go with these. They’re pretty easy to make and delicious!

Market Comparison:

In terms of cost, I’m not sure as I’ve never bought tortillas from the store… But I imagine they do not cost 1 cent per tortilla. Nutritionally, 1 Flour Mission Tortilla is 150 calories… These are about a FOURTH of that. :)
