The role of cereal products in nutrition

According to Canada’s Food Guide, cereal products, especially whole grains, are a good source of carbohydrates and fibres.

Besides providing the energy we need every day, carbohydrates are essential to the proper functioning of the brain and red blood cells. Foods rich in fibres can help people to feel full or satisfied. A diet rich in fibres can also contribute to reducing the risk of heart diseases.

A varied and balanced diet is a key to good health.

Our tortillas are good allies in a healthy diet.

They are easy and quick to prepare, and combine well with all the other food groups that Canada’s Food Guide recommends for daily consumption. Meats, beans, vegetables, and cheese are the perfect companions for our wheat tortillas.

The whole family will enjoy tortillas in the morning, at lunch, and at suppertime. Encourage your children to invent their own recipes, let them prepare their own meals. They’ll have more fun using tortillas themselves.

Our recipes section will give you plenty of inspiration.
