Tortilla could be the basis for many dishes; the most popular traditional tortilla dishes are burritos, quesadillas, tacos, fajitos, and other snacks. Required elements of all tortilla dishes are sauces and salads (for example, salsa or guacamole), which make them juicy and form the very unique taste. In addition, tortillas are often served instead of bread for other dishes (for example, chili con carne). They serve as the basis for pies, stuffed rolls and sandwiches. They are eaten fried or baked, served just like that or rolled up and stuffed with filling. The filling can be both salty and sweet. And crisp slices are used as a side dish and thicken soups with them. The product is perfect for dinner, makes the menu of restaurants and cafes, or the daily home menu more diverse, and is also a healthy analogue of fast food.
