    • Homemade Flour Tortillas

      Now that running to the store for every little thing isn’t an option, I have been making my own tortillas instead of buying them. These are easy to make and you will look very impressive on your next Taco Tuesday. This recipe makes eight good size tortillas, but you can double the recipe if you would like more than that.

      I could say that I intended to make them the shape that they are in, but I will admit I was going for a circle. They tasted just as good regardless of whatever shape that actually is lol.

      You only need four ingredients to make your own tortillas and they are:

      2 cups of flour

      1/2 tsp. salt

      3/4 cup water

      3 tbsp. olive oil

      Combine flour and salt in a medium size mixing bowl. Add the water and oil and mix well.

      Put the dough on a floured cutting board and knead for a minute or so.

      Cut your dough into eight even portions.

      Roll each portion into a very thin circle. Yes, circle. That is the goal anyway. Actually, the one shown below is kind of a circle.

      You will need to keep flouring the board and rolling pin because they tend to get sticky.

      Heat your skillet a little higher than medium heat. Make sure your skillet is hot before putting in the tortilla. Cook for only about 1 minute or so, the tortilla should bubble as seen.

      What shape is that actually? It’s not even close to a circle lol. I think i need to practice my rolling skills.

      Flip the tortilla and cook the other side.

      Keep them warm until serving and fill them with fish, chicken, pork, or whatever. You’ll love them!

    • Fish Tacos

      Fish tacos are so easy to make, and it doesn’t have to be Tuesday to enjoy them. Taco Tuesday can be any day! This picture was actually of tacos made from a Striped Bass my husband caught this summer. Other than that one time, I always use Haddock for my tacos. I actually use Haddock for anything I make with fish because it is my favorite white fish.

      For the fish I just squeeze some lime over the fish, and sprinkle a little cayenne pepper (just a very little) and some garlic powder. Then bake it for 22 minutes at 375 degrees. That is it for the fish! Simple!

      You can use tortillas or hard taco shells, whichever you prefer. As far as toppings, also whatever you prefer. I typically use lettuce, chopped tomatoes, shredded cheese, and sometimes jicama. If you have never had jicama it is a juicy, crunchy, sweet root vegetable that is fantastic on fish tacos. Just slice it into thin strips, and serve it raw.

      For a taco sauce I whip up this easy recipe:

      Ingriedients:

      3 tbsp. sour cream

      2 tbsp. mayonaise

      Juice of one lime

      1/2 tsp. garlic powder

      1/2 tsp. hot sauce like Red Devil or Cholula

      Mix all ingredients until smooth. Refrigerate until ready.

      Now you are ready for taco Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday!
