I wonder if they've taken into account the fiber in the veggies? If not, 18 carbs could be reduced to possibly 10 or 12. Just a thought.

ya but its still in lettuce.... I would prefer making my own and using the lowcarb tortilas. Much more yummy than a piece of lettuce.

According to their website, this is the breakdown for the entire dish:

Meat 15-16 carbs less 3 carb fiber
Sauce 3 carbs
Lettuce 1.16 carbs
Vegetables 8 carbs less 2 carb fiber

Total: Approx 23 carbs (not including cheese, sour cream, etc.)

Not too bad for the entire meal!
