Playing with My Taste Buds... Tuesday, November 29

Look out Martha Stewart, I’m turning myself into quite the kitchen-adventurous gal… cooking up a storm, experimenting with foods I like and trying to come up with strangely delish but often questionable dishes, and now I’ve added baking to my list of things I do in the kitchen, sweet.

Tonight I experimented with making homemade tortillas. Ok, so apparently tortillas are easy to make but I noted that I “experimented” with making them and by experimenting I meant I added random ingredients I like but didn’t know if they’d taste good.

That seems to be my trademark in the kitchen, or so Snickers claims. Often I try to make random dishes out by combining foods I like, like chicken and oatmeal; I call it “Chickmeal” – oatmeal combined with boiled chicken and either a dash of cinnamon or blueberries added for extra flavoring.

Today’s tortillas were relatively tame ones, meaning that they didn’t have anything really unusual in them but I tried to make them super healthy and super delish, with flaxseed and whole wheat flour being the much leaned on ingredients as well as various spices like garlic and oregano. So tonight’s tortillas were delish and rather on the tame side but I do plan on venturing into more creative tortillas, like tortillas with crushed bananas in them or things like shredded spinach or perhaps some protein shake mix to really mix them up!
