Default Low calorie tortilla / fajitas

I love taking tortillas and adding some dip sauce and then smoked salmon. But each tortilla wrap is 140 cal which adds up when I eat three tortillas.
Any ideas as to what brands carry low calorie tortillas / fajitas?

weight watchers wraps are only 98 cals per wrap, usually I add low fat/light mayo, ham and salad.

I thought wholemeal would have been a good shout but I just checked mine and they're 168 calories each! They are huge, though.

i love tortilla wraps but i think the calories are way high for the size of them, not good when you're calorie counting haha, i still have them but just make them really bulky with low cal fillings, so one is enough.

Seriously, try these, they are all I have used for a long time now:

La Tortilla Factory Low Carb Tortillas:

http://www.carbsmart.com/wwt.html

* 50 calories per tortilla
* Just 3 grams of net carbs per tortilla
* Excellent source of fiber (7 grams per tortilla)
* Higher protein (5g per tortilla)
* Three flavors available
* 10 regular size tortillas per package.


I buy the whole wheat ones, they are available at my regular Vons grocery store where the rest of the tortillas are sold. Which is awesome because then I don't have to pay for shipping or wait for them to arrive! But I had no idea until just now that there were other flavors with the same nutritional profile! I think I will have to try them, I bet they are tastier.

I use these too, or the Extreme Wellness High Fiber Link with 71 calories, 2g fat, and 12 grams of fiber.
