Flour Tortilla Recipes

Flour tortillas are soft, pliable flatbreads made from wheat flour, fat, water, and salt. Their mild flavor and flexible texture make them a versatile pantry ingredient for quick lunches, family dinners, and meal prep.

Use flour tortillas for burritos, quesadillas, fajitas, breakfast wraps, pinwheels, enchiladas, tostada-style bakes, and crispy tortilla strips. They are especially useful when you want a fast base for recipes with beans, chicken, cheese, eggs, vegetables, or saucy fillings.

For the best texture, warm flour tortillas briefly before filling so they bend without cracking. They can be toasted in a dry skillet, wrapped in foil and heated in the oven, or lightly charred over a gas flame for extra flavor.
