Yummy Carrot Tortillas

Yummy Carrot Tortillas

This recipe is PERFECT for those old carrots that you find at the bottom of your fridge. Don't throw them away! Since carrots are 90% water, the ones left behind in your fridge will be slightly dehydrated: perfect for this recipe! Extra moisture in the tortilla mix can cause them to fall apart when you cook them. 
  • 3 carrots, shredded (2½ cups)
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 tsp each paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt
  • black pepper to taste
  • 1 tbs olive oil

  1. In a large bowl, combine the shredded carrots, shredded cheese, eggs, seasonings and make sure it's all mixed together well. If any excess liquids appears, dab it away with a paper towel.
  2. In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil on a medium heat. Once hot, add 1/2 cup of the mixture and pat down gently to spread it out. Use the back of the spatula to do this and to form a round shape of your flat tortilla (doesn't have to be perfect). TRY NOT TO MAKE THEM TOO THIN OR THEY WILL FALL APART.
  3. Cook on one side for 3-4 minutes, then flip CAREFULLY and cook another 3 minutes. Lower your heat if they are getting starting to get too brown.
  4. Go wild with your filling ideas!
