Thumbs up to KW for this recipe. I cooked it yesterday. I used regular fajita tortillas, regular sour cream and regular cheese (not low fat). Sorry, I’m a cheater, but I’m sure that it would be just as good with whole wheat tortillas and low fat ingredients. My husband was very impressed. He also cooks and kept saying over and over again (all evening) how good it was. Great flavor mix. Thanks, again KW! Regards, Paula
