Want The Answer To Your Tortilla Prayers?

Hi!

I have posted the tortilla recipe in a couple of places but recently had an accidental change when making them that resulted in the absolute final edition of the ultimate tortilla. I really do actually like these better than the wheat flour counterpart. Here it is and I hope you give it a try:

1 package pizza crust Chebe

1 package bread stick Chebe

4 Tablespoons flax meal

4 Tablespoons Pamela's Mix (any basic flour mix will probably work here)

4 Tablespoons Olive Oil

4 Eggs

1/2 Cup or more of Milk to make this into a nice pliable, kneadable dough. Not too sticky but not dry.

Take a gallon size ziploc bag and cut open all three sides leaving just the zipper zipped. Then pull off golf ball (or slightly larger) sized balls of dough - place in center of bag, between plastic and roll out into a very thin circle. Remove from plastic and cook on a heated to low/med. heat frying pan (NOT greased). Cook for about a minute (until slightly golden) then flip and do the other side. Pile them up. I put half of them in a baggie in the freezer and the other half in a bag in the fridge. This recipe makes about 14 large (burrito sized) tortillas.

Now you've got the prefect thing for burritos, quesidiallas, sandwich wraps, and you've got to try them as personal pizzas, just top 'em and pop in the oven till toppings are melted and bubbly.

The tortillas may be a little stiff (but never "crack") when pulled directly out of the fridge but are very bendable and flexible once warmed up - either on a pan or in the mic. for a few seconds.

Enjoy!!

I actually made these from your prior post and I have a question. Can I substitute the pizza mix for plain breadstick mix? I loved the tortillas but they have a flavor from the pizza seasoning in the pizza crust mix and I would like to try them plain.

Also, I had some trouble rolling them thin enough and then being able to get them off the ziplock bag without tearing them so I used a little bit of the gluten-free flour and sprinkled it on the ziplock bag before I started rolling it out and that really helped.

Thank you so much for posting this! I made quesadillas (spelled right??) and breakfast burritos which I have missed sooo much!!

Great recipe!

You could certainly use breadstick mix instead of the pizza mix. The only one I would adjust for is if you decide to use the "plain" Chebe that comes in the red bag. That one contains dry milk and the others do not. So I guess if I were going to use that one, I'd use water instead of milk in the final product - but I have not tried it. I have however used it to make "garlic naan" (Indian flat bread) - using plain yogurt instead of water or milk. They came out great!

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
