i used Toufayan GF Wraps because they’re soft, pliable, delicious, and great for burritos, quesadillas, and hello, enchiladas!

like their regular wraps and tortillas, Toufayan Gluten-Free Wraps are made with quality, wholesome ingredients.  you guys know that the healthy foodie in me loves that these wraps are naturally cholesterol and trans-fat free.

there are four gluten-free wrap varieties to choose from: Original, Savory Tomato, Spinach, and Smart Grain (not pictured).

the main flours inside these wraps are cornstarch, tapioca starch, rice flour, and soy flour which makes them thin, moist, and so good!

the wraps are great straight outta the bag and they also freeze very well (up to 8 months unopened)!

typically, gluten-free breads and wraps are more flexible and pliable when warm.  i microwaved 5 of the wraps all together for 20-30 seconds before rolling my enchiladas.

my entire family loved these lactose-free enchiladas, but we’ve also been enjoying these wraps for breakfast burritos, tortilla pizzas, and turkey pinwheels!  they taste great whether served cold or warm.
