I have had a bag for a while now and I usually use it to thicken my sauce for gravy. I can't seem to find another way that may be healthy and won' t take too much time to make. Looking for any good suggestions...:smile:

    I make chocolate chip cookies with my white flour. They are delicious. Not that fast, though. The dough takes awhile to make and they have to bake for 9 minutes.

    I'm wondering if there are anymore dinner ideas for white flour beside as gravy, when I was little my grandma would make boiled and fried dumplings they were good but I have not perfected them yet and
    I don't really like frying food cause of the grease...

    Nothing. That stuff is poison, in so many ways. (Sorry to be a downer)

    No it is not.

    Be factual, please. Fearmongering isn't welcome.

    Ok here are some facts about white flour (WF):

    1. WF is stripped of the most nutrient-rich parts of the grain.
    2. It is processed in a way which makes it instantly absorbed when it reaches the intestine. Unlike whole grains-which take a much longer time to be digested, absorbed, and broken down into energy, WF immediately raises your blood sugar levels, much in the same way sugar does.
    3. After you eat WF, your body has two choices: either burn it off immediately, or store it as fat. Usually, unless you are working out while eating your flour tortilla, it is stored as fat.
    4. Due to the instant elevation of your blood sugar level (which is also shown to be unhealthy), the later instant drop of your blood sugar will likely leave you hungry.
    5. WF and sugar are very similar in the ways they effect our energy, bodies and health. Both can be major contributors to weight gain.

    I eat it in very small doses as I notice it greatly affects the way my body processes food and the resulting cravings.

    As with all things, use it in moderation and you will be fine. But do not eat it at night--instant saddlebags.
