Siete Family Foods

Siete Family Foods is a family owned business born out of a necessity to make food that the entire family can eat and enjoy. They make gluten-free, grain-free tortillas with a few simple ingredients, offering a delicious alternative to flour tortillas, a pantry staple in most Texas homes and restaurants. Co-owner and founder, Veronica Garza, started making the tortillas several years ago after committing to a gluten-free diet to alleviate symptoms of lupus and other autoimmune conditions. The tortillas were a big help in allowing her to continue enjoying meals like Mexican fajitas and breakfast tacos with her family and friends in Laredo, Texas. Siete is owned by Aida, Veronica, and Miguel Garza and operates out of a completely gluten free kitchen in Austin, Texas. This mother, daughter, brother team hope that their tortillas can bring the same joy to your family and friends as it has brought to theirs.
