About Taco, corn tortilla, beef, cheese
The taco is one of Mexico's great gifts to the table: a small corn tortilla folded around a savory filling — here seasoned ground beef and cheese, usually finished with lettuce, tomato and salsa. Its small size makes it endlessly shareable, which is why tacos rarely arrive alone.
Built on a corn tortilla rather than a flour wrap or fried shell, it stays relatively contained at around 250 calories per 100 grams. The beef and cheese supply complete protein, iron and calcium, while the corn tortilla adds whole-grain carbohydrate and a little fiber.
Tacos are easy to steer in a healthier direction — leaner meat or beans, a soft corn tortilla over a fried one, and a heap of fresh salsa and vegetables. The toppings, more than the shell, set the final calorie count.
