So last night my kiddos and I decided we wanted basically munchies for dinner, so we had some cheese sticks, fries (oven baked) and quesadillas. I had two packs of Mission Tortillas in the pantry so I told the kids we were gonna do something fun for dinner – a taste test. We had Mission Yellow Corn Tortillas Extra Thin and Mission White Corn Tortillas.
VS. 
Now you’d think a corn tortilla is just a corn tortilla, not so. My son loved the yellow corn tortilla and I couldn’t even get him to try the white corn. He liked the yellow corn tortillas and that was that and he’s never had yellow corn tortillas before usually white corn. He was not going to try anything else. He’d made up his mind and there was not changing it. My daughter on the other hand, liked the white corn and didn’t care for the yellow corn. Why is it always that way, no two kids like the same type. So, I guess I’m the tie breaker. I voted white corn with Princess and here’s why. Although both were good, I found the white corn to be softer and personally I preferred the taste and texture. It was only a slight taste difference but between the two I’d have to go with the white corn.
Both the white corn and yellow corn tortillas have zero g Trans fat per serving, No lard, No cholesterol. The packaging on the yellow corn tortillas note Gluten Free. I was just checking out all the great recipes on MissionMenus.com This one looked especially good: Baked Chipotle Chicken Flautas Check it out I’m sure you’ll find some great recipes your family will love.

Hello, thanks for the great comparison on the white and yellow corn Mission Tortillas! My husband and I love tortillas and we will definitely have to do a taste test too!
I wasn’t sure if you ever tried La Tortilla Factory Tortillas. They make all different kinds and two differnt sizes (Low Carb/High Fiber, Wheat, Extra Virgin Olive Oil which includes wraps with tomato / basil, rosemary, rye…etc). The Low Carb large size only have 80cals per tortilla and they taste great. My husband and I have tested allot and we just love the taste for the number of calories. I have to admit that we eat at least 2 a day!
I am not sure if your kids like pizza although if so, we list one of our favorite recipes (Italian Veggie Pizza) on our site. We have it at least 2-3 times a week and you can substitute any of the veggies too!
Hope you like the recipe and get a chance to try the tortillas!
