Four calorie option... take a mandoline slicer and slice a jicama... One typical jicama makes almost 3 dozen tortillas... Once sliced keep in water until ready to use... Top the slice with whatever toppings you would use for your tacos...0

I saw jicamas at the market yesterday and was going to buy one but wasn't sure what to do with it! Will have to grab one and try this next time I see them :laugh:0 -
Let me know how it goes! Budget Bytes is such a wicked blog for great ideas. Her no knead ciabatta was a staple in our house for about 18 months when I started logging... eventually I just got sick of eating so much bread! :laugh:
Oh, I am TOTALLY trying that recipe! Sounds awesome.Here's another great source for easy, low-fat tortillas:

Yum! I love homemade breakfast burritos but the tortillas are always so unhealthy. I am making zucchini enchiladas from skinnytaste for a work christmas party so I just might have to give these a try. Thanks for sharing!0

Made these for my husband for tea, really easy to make But MFP calculates them as almost 90 cals, which is still less than the 160 ones I was buying! 0

OH MY. I never thought to just leave out the oil- I thought they wouldn't be as good. Definitely trying this.0

They sound very nice and I'll try them but they are around 50-55 calories per tortilla, not 40! 1/4 (32grs) of flour is not 80 calories then divided by to tortillas to give 40 calories for each, it's closer to 110. Thanks for sharing.0
