Homemade Wheat Tortillas

First let me say this... once you go homemade you will not go back to the store bought ones. Oh my goodness! These bad boys are amazing right off the pan. So tasty!

They are not hard to make and have so much flavor. 

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups of white whole wheat flour

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 cup of oil (I used olive oil)

Easy right? :)

Directions

Mix all the ingredients together in a mixer (a hand or stand mixer works just fine). 

Flour the counter top pretty good so the dough doesn't stick to it. 

Roll out the dough into a log shape and slice 10 pieces. 

Roll each piece into a little ball and flatten with your hand and let rest for about 30 minutes. I used a floured cookie sheet. 

After 30 minutes are up, then roll each piece into a tortilla shape and put onto a large frying pan or griddle. 

Flip over after a few seconds because you do not want them to get hard. 

Enjoy!

Before I even get into the recipe part I will say the lovely Husband thoroughly enjoyed this! Heck even I did, but just seeing him really enjoy something that I have made brings joy to my heart.

This recipe is on meal plan week 1 for Monday, June 3. Click HERE to check it out. 

Ingredients

2 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded (I use one and cut them in half..shhhhh) ;)

9 tortillas

2 cups of shredded cheese

2 cups of red enchilada sauce (recipe here)

1 cup of corn

1 cup of black beans

1 tbsp olive oil

salt and pepper to taste

garnish with parsley (optional)

Directions

Preheat your oven to 350°F.

Spread 1/2 cup of your enchilada sauce on the bottom of a dish. Arrange about 3 tortillas (depending on your type of dish) in a single layer on the sauce. 

Top with shredded chicken, corn, and black beans. 

Sprinkle cheese over top and repeat the layering about 2 more times until you have run out of your ingredients. 

Transfer to the oven for 30 minutes or until the cheese has melted. 

Garnish with parsley (from our garden) - totally optional.
