Flour Tortillas (ever so slightly adapted from Homesick Texan):
- 2 c. flour
- 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. salt
- 2 tsp. canola oil
- 3/4 c. So Delicious Unsweetened Coconut Milk, warmed)
- Mix flour, baking powder, salt, and oil
- Slowly stir in the warm milk until a loose, sticky ball is formed
- Knead for two minutes on a floured surface
- Place dough in a bowl and cover with a damp cloth for 20 minutes
- After the dough has rested, split into eight balls, place on a plate (make sure they aren’t touching), and cover with damp cloth for 10 minutes
- On a floured surface, roll each ball into an 8" circle (roll from the center out and use as few rolls as possible so the dough doesn't get overworked because then the tortillas will be tough)
- Keep rolled-out tortillas covered until ready to cook
- Heat a dry cast iron skillet and cook each tortilla about thirty seconds on each side (puffy air pockets will form - don't worry, they'll deflate)
- Keep cooked tortillas covered
- Olive oil
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 2 small zucchini, thinly sliced
- 5oz mushrooms, sliced
- 1/2 tsp. cumin
- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp. chili powder
- Salt & pepper
- Shredded cheese (I used Daiya shredded "cheddar")
- Tortillas
- Heat olive oil in skillet
- Add onions and peppers, let cook for a couple minutes
- Add mushrooms and zucchini
- Stir in spices and cook until veggies are at desired tenderness
- Place tortilla in a heated lightly oiled skillet, add desired amount of shredded cheese and veggies, top with second tortilla
- When bottom tortilla is lightly browned and cheese is melted, flip and brown top tortilla
- Cut in quarters; serve with salsa, guacamole, etc.
See those lovely refried beans? I made them in my crockpot! Stay tuned for that recipe.
I made three quesadillas and had enough veggies leftover to have 2 soft tacos for lunch the next day. So good and I'm craving more. I think this will be something I make often - if you use store-bought tortillas, this is a super quick and healthy lunch/dinner. However, making the tortillas from scratch really didn't add much time at all, since I could prep the veggies while the dough was resting and I was cooking the tortillas at the same time I was cooking the veggies.
