Homemade Tortillas

We are big Mexican food fans at my house and these easy and delicious tortillas save us quite a bit of cash and help feed the addiction.

You will need:
3 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp salt
3/4 cup shortening
3/4 cup HOT water

1. mix flour, baking powder, and salt thoroughly
2. mix in shortening until crumbly
3. add hot water and mix
It should look like this:

Then roll the dough into balls and using a rolling pin make them about 1/4 inch flat

Then cook on each side about 30 seconds on a grittle
and WALA!

ENJOY!
