(RECIPE included, below) This is a sponsored post. All my opinions are my own. I was so excited when La Tortilla Factory contacted me and asked if I would create a recipe for their website. Just so you all know, I’d never agree to do this and share the recipe I created with you, unless I really liked their products. And, I LOVE their tortillas! Be sure to scroll down to get my NEW Chicken Enchilada Skillet recipe!La Tortilla Factory’s line of tortillas are fantastic!!! They were founded in 1977 by Jose and Mary Tamayo. As tortilla pioneers, in 1991 La Tortilla Factory introduced the first fat free flour tortillas (in the world) and, five years later, the first low carb/low fat tortillas. They were the first to bring gluten free tortillas, extra virgin olive oil wraps, and fiber and flax corn tortillas to the market. With all these choices, they claearly have a yummy tortilla to meet any diet!***Plus…Show La Tortilla Factory how you’ll live a leaner life in 2016 and you could win a $250 gift card for designer workout clothes and FREE low carb tortillas!

Shopping Tips
La Tortilla Factory products are distributed nationwide at most major retailers and many independent grocery stores as well. Every retailer stocks their tortillas differently, so if you don’t find them in “the normal spot,” please check for them in the ethnic aisle, deli/bakery department, and for gluten-free friends, the gluten-free aisle.
I found a wonderful selection at my local Vons/Safeway.
Be sure to check out La Tortilla Factory’s website for their complete product line and where you can buy them. http://www.latortillafactory.com/products/
