I went to youtube and got a recipe and it read ,4 cups of flour and mix in 1/8 tsp of baking powder ,add 1/2 cup of crisco and work it together untill it is crumbely, then in 1 cup of warm water add 11/2 tsp. of salt and knead it well to form a ball ,and then cover for 20 min, cut in little balls and put some crisco on your fingers and form into a round flat shape and roll them out adding a bit of flour if sticky .
And there they are !! so deliciouse and fresh ,I also had chilli going at the same time ,and quilting no just kidding!!
I managed to find kidney beans at a health food store ,they don't have them in reg. super markets over here they do have tortillas though ,but from now on I will be making them.
I also made one heart shaped just by chance!! I ate it.
And this is the final product my chilli and my tortillas with all the fixings, I reccomend to try them, and thanks Marilyn!!, wish all of you a nice day.

Wow you made tortillas from scratch!!??!! I am impressed. Now I'm hungry ....I may have to try too. Thanks for the inspiration.
I am also looking forward to seeing how your tea pot & cups & saucer project comes out. Best of luck!

I've never made Tortillas myself but after looking at your pictures and reading the recipe I might give it a try. It looks so delicious. Thanks for sharing! Hugs Vreni x
Good Morning Theodora!
These look so delicious...I will have to try your recipe! My boys love tacos and tortillas...I make a breakfast sandwich with egg that calls for a tortilla...I'll have to try it with your recipe. Thanks for sharing!
Have a blessed weekend!

Looks delicious! I remember my Mom telling me about living outside California for a while in the late 50's and having to ask my Grandma to ship her tortillas...that seems so funny to me...but the home made ones look wonderful! Great job!
Do you know I have been wanting to make my own - I usually make chilli at the weekend so THIS weekend, we will have our own tortillas as well :0)
Thank you!
