Can you say tortillas?

Stop buying processed food.    Check out the food packages you now have in your home.  Most of them have travelled more than you have this year.  Do you really want to eat chicken strips that began their journey in Thailand?  That chicken has to be chemically enchanced to it’s little peak to travel that distance.   Read the labels. Like I said before  ”If you can not pronounce what is in it, then don’t put it in your mouth. ”

There are few recipes out there that you can not duplicate in the comfort of your own kitchen.   Start looking for recipes on the internet or buy cookbooks.

Isn’t this a happy looking cookbook!

I received it as a Christmas gift from Julia and Paul.  And what an incredible cookbook.   The recipes are for made from scratch predominantly vegetarian dishes from the menu served at the Rebar Restaurant in Victoria, B.C.   The instructions are well written, and many recipes include helpful hints.

My favourite recipe by far is the hand-rolled flour tortillas.   I had no idea they were so easy to make.  They take over 2 hours to complete due to the resting time, but are well worth the wait.    I’ve served the tortillas filled with scrambled eggs, chopped red peppers, shredded cheddar and salsa for breakfast.   For an easy supper I used them as a base for  chicken club house wraps.
