Gluten Free Tortillas


Not only are these tortillas gluten free but they are also low calorie and hold together better than corn tortillas! They come out thicker than flour tortillas but they have the best taste and texture. 

I found the recipe at this link http://slimpalate.com/cauliflower-tortillas-paleo-grain-free-gluten-free/#comment-11522

Also pasted below with a few of my changes

Ingredients
  • ¾ a head of cauliflower riced or 2 cups riced and packed
  • 2 eggs
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 Teaspoon of nutritional yeast
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. Toss ¾ a head of cauliflower cut up and most of the stem removed and pulse until you get a texture slightly finer than rice. (Once it's riced measure it to make sure you have 2 cups packed.)
  3. Place riced cauliflower in bowl and microwave for 2 minutes and stir, then another two minutes and stir again then place in cheese cloth and squeeze excess water out as hard as you can. (You're going to want to get out as much water as you can)
  4. Place drained cauliflower back in bowl and add two eggs, nutritional yeast, salt and pepper and mix until well combined.
  5. Spread mixture onto a baking sheet into 6 small fairly flat circles.
  6. Place in the oven for 10 minutes then pull out of the oven and carefully peel them off the parchment and flip them and place back in the oven for 5-7 more minutes.
  7. Once they're done place them on a wire rack to cool slightly.
  8. Heat a medium sized pan over medium heat and place the tortillas into the pan pressing down slightly and brown them to your liking. (Don't skip this step because it gives them slightly crispy on the edges and gives them a wonderfully nutty taste)
