I help my clients regain their health by designing an overall wellness program, specific to their needs.
Relationships, exercise, career, and spirituality are just as important to your health as the food you eat. I understand this, from personal experience, and take a holistic approach to supporting the whole person.
My goal is to help you to eat WHOLE and THRIVE!
Healthy Gut Tortillas
Ingredients
· 1 1/2 cups brown rice flour
· 1/2 cup fresh ground flax seed
· 2 tablespoons powdered chia seeds (fresh ground in coffee grinder)
· 1 teaspoon baking powder
· 1 teaspoon sea salt
· 2 tablespoons olive oil
· 3/4-1 cup hot water
· 1/2 cup frozen chopped spinach, thawed with the excess liquid squeezed out
Directions
1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the brown rice flour, flax seed meal, chia seed powder, baking powder, and sea salt.
2. Mix in the olive oil.
3. In a blender, combine 3/4 cup of hot water with the spinach and blend on high until smooth.
4. Slowly pour the spinach puree into the dry ingredients and stir.
5. Let the dough rest for 5 minutes.
6. If the dough is still dry and crumbly, continue to add additional warm water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough easily comes together to form a workable dough.
7. Form the dough into 8 even balls and place them back in the mixing bowl; cover with a damp paper towel to prevent thedough from drying out.
8. Preheat a lightly oiled 10–12-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
9. Roll a dough ball between 2 pieces of parchment paper into a round tortilla, as thin as you can get it (about the thickness of a nickel), about 7 inches in diameter.
10.Peel off the top layer of parchment paper and place the tortilla, dough side down, into the hot skillet. Within a few seconds, you should be able to gently peel off the remaining piece of parchment paper. Cook until bubbly and golden. Flip and continue to cook until bubbly and golden on the other side (Be careful not to overcook. If the tortillas start to burn, beyond normal charring like you see in the picture, reduce heat to medium.).
11.Place the cooked tortillas on a plate between layers of paper towels. Some of the tortillas might come out of the skillet somewhat crispy, but as they sit on top of each other, between the layers of paper towels, the warm moist heat makes them pliable and soft.
12.Continue rolling and cooking the remaining dough.
