When I met my husband, he said, “Can you dance?”.
As sure as anything, I said, “I can do anything.”
His response… “Can you make tortillas?” (…what???)
It’s 20 years later. Not only do I make tortillas, I make paleo tortillas that taste good! 🙂

- Using an electric tortilla press, wipe a little coconut oil, avocado oil, or ghee butter on heated surface where tortillas will be cooked.
- With an electric tortilla press, slowly pour ¼ cup batter into center of tortilla press.
- Press down until batter appears to stretch to inside edges of press.
- Cook each tortilla for 1 minute.
