About Tortilla with shredded meat and sauce
Tortilla with shredded meat and sauce is a flavorful dish rooted in Latin American cuisine, often featured in Mexican or Tex-Mex traditions. It typically consists of soft corn or flour tortillas filled with succulent shredded beef, chicken, or pork, simmered in a rich, spiced sauce made from tomatoes, chilies, and seasonings. Common accompaniments include fresh vegetables, avocado, and a sprinkle of cheese. The dish provides protein from the meat and fiber from the vegetables, supporting muscle health and digestion. Using whole-grain tortillas enhances nutritional value, adding additional fiber. However, calorie content can increase depending on the type and amount of cheese, sour cream, or fried preparation involved. Opting for lean meats and lighter toppings can make this dish a balanced, satisfying option as part of a healthy diet.
