Flaxseed Tortillas

Cultural Context

Flaxseed tortillas are a modern twist on traditional Mexican tortillas, offering a gluten-free alternative that caters to health-conscious eaters. Flaxseeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and fiber, making these tortillas not only nutritious but also versatile for various fillings. They have gained popularity in recent years as more people seek gluten-free options in their diets.
