And out of a can, too. But it's much better than any chili I ever make. Chili is the one thing I cannot make from scratch. It always comes out terrible. It's cheaper to make, but I just buy it now.


It’s all in the timing !
I tried for a year on how to make homemade flour tortillas.
I used only the ingredients as suggested, but they would all turn out hard as frisbees !

Then I tried doing less “kneading" of the dough & afterwards I covered the dough with a slight damp towel
& let it sit for a little bit before making them.

Now I have tortillas soft & so nice tasting...almost as nice as my grandma used to make.

Except afterwards, the kitchen is all a big mess of flour powder all over the walls
& on Polo too !

I do believe sometimes I can hear my grandma laughing at me ...:D

I have a cookbook handwritten by Hubby's grandma (Lily's namesake) of the recipes he grew up eating. He spent a lot of time at her house, so that makes up a lot of his food memories. He fondly, and often, talks about a tomato cobbler she made.
