The tortillas turned out really good, even though they were small!  The dough is just a mixture of Masa flour and water.  I found my Masa flour at Walmart, so it should be readily available.  I was happy to use my tortilla press I got for my birthday!

I put a wet paper towel over the dough while I was cooking each tortilla so that it wouldn't dry out

When we were at the Mexican restaurant yesterday, we ate this delicious salsa, and we asked what was in it.  Tony found a similar recipe online and it was delicious!!  I think Hannah’s exact words were “don’t ever lose this recipe!”  Of course, I made a couple modifications, no onioms, and I used lime juice instead of lemon juice.  These babies make the salsa extra refreshing and bright:

I ate three of these.  I have no idea how many calories it was, but I had about 900 to spend before dinner since we ate brunch so late

  • 1/4 cup cilantro leaves
  • juice of one lime
  • 1/2 jalapeno, seeded
