Homemade Flour Tortillas

all-purpose flour

baking powder

lard ((or shortening))

water

Add the flour, baking powder salt and lard to a food processor.

Pulse several times until the mixture becomes coarse crumbs.

Add the hot water. Yes, be sure the water is hot!

Pulse again until a sticky dough forms.

Remove the dough from the food processor and knead on a flour dusted pastry mat several times. The dough will be sticky so add a little flour on your hands while kneading. Don't add too much flour. The dough should not become hard. It should remain slightly tacky to the touch. Knead just until the dough is smooth and elastic.

Divide the dough into 15-20 dough balls, depending on the size you'd like the tortillas.

Dampen a cloth towel and cover the dough balls. Let them rest for about 15 minutes.

Allow a skillet to get hot over medium-high heat.

Use a floured pastry mat and roller to roll out each dough ball. The dough should be about the thickness of a dime. Turn the dough 90 degrees often while rolling to get a circle.

Once the skillet is hot, place the rolled dough into the skillet and let it cook for 15-20 seconds. Flip the tortilla and allow it to cook for the same amount on the other side.

Line a plate or tortilla warmer with damp paper towels. Place the cooked tortilla on the warmer or plate and cover with another damp paper towel. This ensures that your tortillas stay soft and pliable.&nbsp;

Store the tortillas in the refrigerator.&nbsp;

To reheat, wrap the tortillas in foil and warm them in a 350 degree oven until they are heated through to your liking.

Cooking spray or oil ((to grease pan))

Cheesy Ground Turkey Quesadillas (with black beans)

Preheat oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit (to keep quesadillas warm while cooking batches).

In a non stick pan on medium heat add olive oil.

When shimmering, add onion and cook 3 to 5 minutes.

Add ground turkey and break up into crumbles with a wooden spoon or potato masher. Add bell pepper, beans, corn, taco seasoning and chipotle powder. Heat until turkey is completely cooked through, about 10 to 12 minutes.

Stir in tomato paste and broth and cook 1 to 2 minutes.

Distribute half of the cheese among all tortillas (on one side of them).

Distribute ground turkey mixture on top of cheese (about half a cup per tortilla). Then, sprinkle remaining cheese on top of ground turkey. Fold tortilla over so you have a half moon shape.

Working in batches (about 2 quesadillas per batch), spray cooking spray or a drizzle of oil into  pan and cook quesadillas (on medium low heat) for about 2 minutes or so per side until golden brown and cheese is melted (carefully turning and watching to ensure they don&#039;t burn and carefully turning with a large spatula).  Grease pan, as needed, between batches. While continuing batches, place cooked quesadillas on a baking sheet in preheated oven to keep warm.

Cut each half moon in half so you end up with 20 pieces. Serve with salsa, guacamole and/or sour cream.  Enjoy!Note:  If your tortillas are smaller or larger than the size used here, the quantity you yield will vary.
