Need Ideas For Corn Tortillas And Recipes For Flour Tortillas


Allielayla

Recommended Posts

Allielayla Newbie

I am looking for some meal and recipes ideas that would use corn tortillas. I am really hoping to find some non-tex-mex ideas as well. I just don't want everything to have a similar taste. I find the corn tortillas quick and easy (and safe). Also is anyone has a good gluten-free flour tortilla recipe, I would be really grateful.

Thanks,

Allie

Quesadillas--fill with cheese, any meat, beans, whatever you like really.

Tacos

Enchiladas

Fajitas--beef, chicken or all veggies--peppers, onions are traditional, but whatever stirfried veggies and seasonings you like works too.

Taco salad-- line a large muffin cup with tortillas, brush with oil and bake until crispy, then fill with meat/veggies. or just do chips and top with meat and salad toppings.

corn chips-- brush with oil, cut into chips with a pizza cutter and bake at 350 for around 15 minutes or until crispy-- watch closely the last few minutes so they don't burn.

Peanut butter and jelly tortillas

Tortilla pizza-- dot with a small amount of sauce, cheese and whatever toppings you like and bake until the shell is crispy

migas. otherwise known as corn tortilla french toast with salsa instead of syrup. it's good with the syrup instead of the salsa too. (add cinnamon!)

i use them in garlic soup instead of bread/croutons.

roll-ups with sandwich fillings like tuna salad, turkey, etc

I find corn to be a pretty strong flavor that i like best with the bean/cheese/salsa trio though.

Use corn tortillas as pizzas. Bake a little. Brush with olive oil, add pizza sauce and toppings and bake until ready.

I don't have real masa and make "polenta tortillas" instead using precooked polenta. Tastes different but good too. Here's what I like to make:

- fry them on butter and then coat in cinnamon sugar.

- cut in quarters and deep-fry in sunflower oil to make fresh chips (they have great discounts on avocados now, I'm on a guacamole&chips diet until it's over :P )

- slice them and fry with onion and salsa or with eggs, onions, tomatoes, chilles, whatever's in the house.

- plain old quesadillas are great. You can always fill them with more stuff than just cheese.

- warm them up and put butter and jam on top or butter, salt and sliced garlic

My kids love them with rolled up with cream cheese, ham, and cheese

      Hey! I’m recently gluten free and yes I really struggle with alcohol now. I haven’t really drank in 2 months as it just made me feel awful the next day in terms of stomach ache mainly. I’ve had a couple of glasses of white wine here and there (mainly low sulphate) but every time it gives me a gut ache. I think it’s because but guy is so damaged from my journey to discovering my gluten intolerance and hopefully this will improve but honestly I’m just not bothered about having a drink now. I can’t even touch Prosecco or champagne I think the bubbles really upset me!

      That is helpful thank you I hadn’t thought of that!

      I just wanted to share my support for you. Rant away. We all know that, and have experiences like that at some point. I am sorry for that very unpleasant, and emotionally isolating reminder of your medical condition. Which always is exacerbated by the hunger. I will admit many of my family friends, and coworkers found it easier to exclude me than to accommodate me. I also have to be very strict with cross contamination so in hindsight they did me a favor.  The sting however can often still be unearthed when I read experiences like yours.  I am sorry you had that occur. I hope you, and the coworkers can find the easy more accommodating experiences again after this unfortunate incident. Best wishes.

      "...hemorrhoids, constipation and diarrhea" . Heard of indeed. Experienced too. In hindsight, I can remember from age 2 having, and trying to convey my issues. I went 38 years misdiagnosed. So yes one can have these issues. I did have to go back on gluten for a gluten challenge. I failed that challenge and 6 days in they give me permission to stop, and I proceed with my scopes as scheduled. Post those 6 days I had gained 13 intolerances. I had to remove many foods, and reintroduce them back in. Nine years later I have two that remain gluten, and corn. I found it helpful to follow a whole foods diet. I also found autoimmune (AIP) protocol diet/recipes, and Paleo diet/recipes helpful. I still enjoy many of those homemade version recipes. I still continue to make my own salad dressings even if I can find a gluten-free store bought version. Fresh taste best to this palate now.  I did give up many grains I was off many and reverted to coconut flour and almond flour as work arounds .  I still remember the first time my gut experienced the reintroduction of quinoa. It wasn't sure if it wanted to flare or not. In 30 minutes it reported back ok this will pass. Many foods were removed post gluten challenge for me for 2 years and 4 months. At the 2 year 4 month mark is when my body said ok let's eat again, but don't ever feed me gluten again! I wish you the best.

      if you have already learned that Gluten is the cause of your symptoms, of course there is no need to add it back into your diet— your decision could save you a lot of needless suffering. One thing to consider is that if you do have celiac disease, your first- degree relatives may also need to get screened for it, because, like diabetes the disease is genetic, although many of its triggers seem to be environmental factors. You may want to consider getting a genetic test for celiac disease, so you can at least warn your relatives if it turns out that you do carry a celiac gene.
