Whole Wheat Taco Shells

Whole Wheat Taco Shells

EverydayCooked

Whole wheat taco shells are a nutrient-dense alternative to traditional corn or flour tortillas, made from stone-ground whole wheat flour that retains the bran and germ for added fiber. These baked or fried shells offer a heartier texture and nuttier flavor than refined flour versions, while providing 2-3 times more dietary fiber per serving to support digestive health. Their sturdy structure holds fillings well, making them a practical choice for health-conscious meals without sacrificing the crispness expected of taco shells.
