Spartan Fajita Style Whole Wheat Tortillas
What it is
These are soft, pliable flatbreads made with whole wheat flour. They are seasoned with a blend of spices that evoke the flavors commonly found in fajitas, such as chili powder, cumin, and paprika. The texture is designed to hold fillings without tearing easily, making them suitable for wrapping or folding. They offer a slightly heartier bite than tortillas made with refined flour.

To best enjoy their texture, warm these tortillas before serving. You can do this by heating them briefly in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 15-30 seconds per side until they are soft and pliable. Alternatively, you can wrap a stack in a damp paper towel and microwave them for 20-30 seconds. Once warmed, they are ready to be filled with your favorite ingredients and rolled or folded into your desired dish.
