Homemade Tortillas
Store bought tortillas are functional and that’s about it. They serve a purpose, but they’re simply not good. At least not after you’ve made your own tortillas and then have to compare homemade tortillas the store-bought 25 ingredient garbage. To make your own homemade tortillas all you need is: 2 cups all purpose flour 1 tsp salt 2/3 cup warm water 5 tbsp butter Combine all ingredients until a rough dough forms. Dump onto counter and knead until dough becomes smooth. Cover, and let rest for 30 minutes. Divide into 4 pieces for large tortillas or 6-8 for smaller tortillas. I always make a double batch and freeze the extras I don’t need. Press into a rough circle with the palm of your hand. Roll thin, then cook on a pan pre-heated to medium heat for about 60 seconds on each side...until small brown spots start to form on cooking side. Flip and repeat until all tortillas are done. Use immediately or allow to cool then place into a bag and into the fridge for 6-7 days or the freezer for months. Warm before reusing. I don’t know exactly when, nor when our food companies turned into morons and started adding a bunch of nonsense into our foods, but you can start telling them to piss off by swapping homemade store bought junk for good quality homemade foods like these tortillas. Enjoy! Jake

That sounds so easy! We use so many tortillas. I try to get the “healthier ones”. But this will be a game changer. Once the store bought ones are gone 😂

@Jake Widmann just made my first batch! So easy thank you for sharing!
My Thoughts On “TREATS”
This is the first time my kids have had a traditional cereal in I don’t know how long…it’s been at least 6 months. They each enjoyed a small bowl, and within five minutes they were all complaining that their tummies hurt and it was too sweet. This is the same type of reaction most kids would have to traditionally healthy foods…”eww, gross, the texture is weird…blah blah blah.” We don’t talk enough about our palate and how it can change…and more importantly…how it can be developed to like healthy foods, just as much as it can be trained to like junk food (like this cereal). YOU are the parent, and you determine, for the most part, what your children put into their mouths. And most importantly…you control what is available to eat in your home. Meaning, they can’t eat cereal if it isn’t present in your home. They can’t eat pop tarts if they aren’t present in your home. They can’t drink soda if it isn’t present in your home! It might not be the easiest thing to rid your home of junk, but it is important and oh so worth it! Much love, Jake

If it was my way my kids would never eat that trash. Meanwhile daycare has all the nasty cereals like that and fruit loops and the cheese puffs
