Stray Thoughts on Dairy Free, Egg-Free Tortillas

[Guest guest]

I've been thinking, which is generally dangerous.

I haven't had a chance to experiment with this yet, but I am wondering if

it would be possible to make something like " zucchini leather "

for a tortilla.

In making fruit leathers, one purees the cooked fruit, pours it on

parchment or a fruit leather sheet in the dehydrator and lets it dry

completely, then peels it off the sheet.

If one cooked peeled zucchini, drained it real well, pureed it, spread it

out on parchment or fruit leather sheet in the desired shape, then

dehydrated it, it might -- MIGHT, I say! -- come up as a vegetable

leather which could be used for a roll-up.

<grin> I use souffle bread for roll-ups and as tortillas, but it's

a trifle hard to do souffle bread without eggs.

>> It seems like that just might work! Great idea, Marilyn. I

wonder if it'd work to add a little almond flour to make it more breadish

and less veggie-ish.

Well, I'd probably add a touch of nut flour, but some people might not be

ready for it. I wonder how a little nut butter added in would work

for adding flavor, etc.?
