HomeMade Tortillas!

So guess what I made tonight!!!   I know, I know, you probably guessed it from the post title eh!  :)       Homemade tortillas.      I'm telling you how much I like tortillas and have wanted to find a way to make them cheaper than buying them.  Hubby found this recipe for me...it is so easy and so yummy.  :)

AND THEY TASTED GOOD!!!!


So here's the recipe, it's super simple.  Original recipe here.

Mix together Two cups flour, 1/2 tsp salt, 3/4 cup water and 3 tbsps of oil. 

Knead that mixture for a good 8 minutes, adding flour or water as needed to make a smooth elastic dough.
Let it rest for 10 minutes. 

Divide into 8 sections, roll each section out as thin as possible, a minimum 7 inch circle.

Cook over a medium burner on a non stick pan with cooking spray.   1 minute each side (you want them LIGHTLY browned).

Keep them warm.  Makes 8 servings.

Easy to make, tastes yummy too!  :)

Tonight we used them wrapped around shredded beef with corn niblets.   MMMMM.. ...  :)
I can totally see cutting them into pieces and using them with a dip, or with mmmm.. melted cheese. :)

  2. Aren't homemade tortillas the BEST?! They kick the butts of store bought tortillas. Unfortunately, I succumb to convenience more than deliciousness most days.

    I love your new (?) header, too. It's so pretty :)

  3. How were they the next day? If you sub out some or all of the water for hot milk, it might help them be softer if you like them. I like the taste of them made with hot milk better than with water. They look good!
