alondrasLow Carb Tortilla Nopal made from prickly pear cactus nopal, chia, flaxseed and sesame seeds - Keto Tortillas Low carb with 20 Calories Each, Gluten Free Multigrain (1)

Steam in the microwave in a damp tea towel or over a stove top steamer to get it warm and flexible.I love them as a lightning quick simple healthy snack smeared with hummus, babaganoush or cream cheese, some salad greens - watercress is ideal - and then rolled up. IMO they do best paired with those bright slightly sharp savory flavours. Delicious!

They do have a good flavor not very different from standard flour tortillas. They are the smaller tortillas. I tried them both for tacos and sandwich wraps worked good for both. No issues with cracking when rolling up like some tortillas get. The price is just too high imo so unless you can't eat standard tortillas or are on a low car diet or something I don't know that I would recommend them just based off the price.

The tortillas have a great taste, they taste just like corn tortillas but better. They are low carb and gluten free! When warming them up, they are very soft, the Quality is great, they taste and feel just like home made tortillas. Best nopales tortillas I’ve had!

Fried these in tallow until crispy. They made great tostada shells. They have more integrity than a regular corn tortilla shell. Was able to pile on the toppings (refried low carb black soy beans, chorizo, melted cheeses, pico de gallo, crema, etc.) and they maintained a terrific crunch. They even withstood a reheating. They are sturdy and tough right out of the package and would probably need to be steamed in order to be pliable enough for a soft taco. Haven’t tried it yet but plan to do so. Highly recommend.

Alondras Low Carb Prickly Pear Tortilla With Chia, Flax Seeds, and Sesame Seeds were the first tortillas that I have received that are vacuumed sealed with no option of resealing the bag. The 15.8oz bag holds 14 tortillas. The bright green colored tortillas are hard and oddly feel like plastic with a bright shine on one side of the tortilla. The first tortilla that I used was for a wrap sandwich. I was surprised to see that the tortilla immediately cracked the moment I attempted to roll it. I found it odd but figured that maybe if I toasted it that it would fold like a traditional tortilla. Sadly, like the straight from the package tortilla, it cracked in half and did not soften from the heat from the toaster. My final attempt was to steam the tortilla. THIS was the ideal way to enjoy this tortilla. I steamed it with a stovetop steamer for 3 minutes. It was perfect! It was tender and pliable just like a traditional tortilla. I was able to roll it without any cracks or awkward breakage. The tortilla has an herbaceous aroma with visible pieces of flax seed and sesame seed sprinkled throughout. Tastewise, it has a very soft flavor of prickly pear lending a vegetal flavor to the tortillas. When toasting or eating the product straight from the bag, the lack of fat (lard, butter, oil) in its ingredients list is obvious and makes a noticeable textural difference to the finished product. However, when steamed, the texture is very close to a traditional tortilla. The tortillas are made with water, nixtamalized white corn masa flour, prickly pear (nopal), flax seeds, chia seeds, and sesame seeds. Each tortilla has 20 Calories, 8g Total Carbohydrate, and 1g Protein. It is Made in Mexico and has a best by date of 6 months from the date that I received it. The manufacturer noted that for ultimate freshness, refrigerate after opening and consume within 30 days of breaking the seal. It is a Gluten-Free and Vegan Product. Overall, if you maintain a gluten-free diet, this is a viable option if you have a craving but you just need to make sure that you steam the tortillas.

I'm sure these are great for most on a low carb diet but they were a little rough and dry and broke apart while I was eating them.

I've enjoyed prickly pear in molcajete while at the restaurant, so I was curious to try it in tortilla form. These are nearly inedible at room temp. There's not much flavor to speak of and they break in half instantly when folded. I tried cooking them in the microwave with a damp paper towel and that helped a bit with pliability. That being said, they are slightly less good than a traditional corn tortilla. I can appreciate that they are low-carb and gluten-free, but to me, the subpar taste despite the high price warrants a 3-star review.

I am back to eating tortillas thanks to these!, i really like the option of compliment my food with healthy low carb tortillas, i am happy with this purchase, texture is really good, fresh taste, good quality and came very well packaged.Love them! :-)
