Buttermilk Tortillas...

  • Just found this recipe. I have always wanted to try making my own Tortillas so this will be my first to try. They were very easy to make and roll out. We really enjoyed them. I used 1/2 wheat and white flour
5 c. flour
4 t. baking powder
1 t. salt
1/2 c. shortening
2-3 c. buttermilk (put in 2 to start with and then add a little more if you need some)
Mix all the dry ingredient together then cut in shortening. Add buttermilk. Mix with your hands (or a large wooden spoon if you prefer not to get your hands dirty), kneading the dough as you go. Let sit for 5 minutes, then form dough into balls just a little bit larger than a walnut . Let balls rest for 5 minutes. Heat a skillet or griddle. Roll balls out into a thin tortilla. Place shell in the hot skillet, turn when the shell starts to bubble. Place cooked shell on a plate and serve with your favorite toppings. 
* Can use 1/2 wheat and 1/2 white flour.

Healthy Chocolate Chip Cookie...

The cookbook was by Jessica Seinfield. All the recipes had pureed vegetables in them. I want to incorporate more cooking like this. I will be adding another tag for this category.
