Tortilla LOVE & Recipe

Hello Again,

I am trying to keep up with my blog these days - we shall see how that goes...

Life has been so busy .....with try to keep up with all the watering in the greenhouse

Plus- Cooking and Baking like Crazy and Spring Cleaning....ugh all keeping me busy....

Im exhausted these days....

Anyhow...I have really been cooking up a ton of Tortillas ... I try to make them on a regular basis -but life gets in the way...

Plus I want the recipe to stay fresh in my head .

Here is the recipe I use for Fresh Flour Tortillas:

2 cups flour
1⁄2 teaspoon salt
1⁄4 cup vegetable shortening or 1⁄4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon baking powder
1⁄2 cup warm water (may possibly need to add more, up to 3/4 cup) or 1⁄2 cup milk (may possibly need to add more, up to 3/4 cup)

Mixed the flour , salt , baking powder first then mix in the vegetable shortening - then the water... You get this ball or Tortilla dough
