Zucchini Tortillas

 

I made some paleo tortillas that are soft and somewhat bendable, but can be made more crisp as well. I made these to have with a taco , toastada, or sandwich wrap.The best part is that it contains no cauliflower  that makes the house stinky, and the kids whiny.  I do love cauliflower  though. My hubby hates it ,so I needed to come up with something he  would eat. I mixed ground up zucchini, minced garlic in a processor. Then put in fine woven towel or cheese cloth and squeezed out excess water. Mixed in chipotle pepper powder and egg. Mixed in flax meal and coconut flour. Spread out on parchment paper in circles. OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAzucchini prepOLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAtortilla   prepOLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Then baked and flipped over to bake other side. Then I made  breakfast toastadas right after. I posted a link for that recipe at bottom of page, yum.toastada
