What are "tablitas"?

Question

I'm looking at a newspaper ad en español for a meal to go. And it mentions a libra de tablitas. Tablitas? That's a new one on me, and I can't find any definition in my dictionary that refers to a food.

Can someone familiar with Mexican cuisine help me with that?

Thanks.
