Materials
- Ingredients Makes about 3-4 medium tortillas
- 1 big bunch fresh Swiss Chard or spinach
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 2/3 cups water
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- Optional: A little oil or butter for toasting the wraps
Instructions
- Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare the Swiss Chard: Wash the Swiss Chard thoroughly. Remove the tough stems and roughly chop the leaves. Blend the chopped leaves with 1 2/3 cups of water until smooth. Strain if you prefer a smoother texture (optional).
- Make the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Pour in the green Swiss Chard mixture and stir until smooth. Cover and let the dough rest for 15–20 minutes.
- Cook the Wraps: Heat a non-stick pan or cast-iron skillet over low heat. pour the wrap mixture into the pan 1-2 ladles, and try to circulate the pan around so the mixture will spread the pan evenly just like crepe. Cook each tortilla wrap for 1–2 minutes on the first side until bubbles form, then flip and cook the other side for another 1 minute or until lightly golden. Flip every 30 seconds if needed until fully cooked.
- Steam for Softness: Stack the cooked wraps in a bowl or plate and cover it tight with a clean towel for about 15 minutes. This step traps steam and makes the wraps soft and flexible.
- Serve: Fill your beautiful green tortillas with your favorite ingredients. Eat them fresh or toast the filled wrap in the pan for extra crispiness (about 5 minutes total).
- Storage Tip: Store cooled tortillas in an airtight container or zip-top bag in the refrigerator for up to 4–5 days. They freeze well for up to 2 months — just layer them with parchment paper and reheat in a pan or microwave when ready to eat.
- These Super Green Tortilla Wraps are a wonderful way to use your garden harvest and bring more vegetables into your family’s meals. Fresh, wholesome, and full of color — they’re sure to become a regular favorite in your kitchen!
