Tortillas From Scratch


 


We made these ~ 1 month ago.  This is not a recipe from EDBV, but one that Alessandra's reading teacher photocopied and sent home with her students.  Alessandra was abundantly eager to make the tortillas, and the process most definitely falls under the category of 'approach love and cooking with reckless abandon.'  I have since misplaced the recipe sheet, but it consisted of maybe 4 ingredients: flour and such to make dough, more flour to roll it out, and lots of Smart Balance to fry each tortilla in the pan.  The finished product wound up being well worth the effort and the mess, especially because it allowed me to utilize canned and jarred fixings I had on hand but still taste unbelievably good due to the fresh out of the pan home-made tortillas.
