Review: La Tortilla Factory Smart & Delicious Traditional Tortillas

I love to experiment in the kitchen. 
This is not news.
Some of my tastiest meals have come about from the ever popular, "what am I going to to do with these leftovers?" question. I truly hate to serve the same thing two nights in a row - unless it's a braise type of meal that just gets better with sitting.

Last night I found myself faced with the remains of a port roast. I also had some La Tortilla Factory tortillas to try. The little brain started sparking and this is what resulted:


Barbecue Pork and Cheese Tortillas with Creamed Cabbage Pickled Cauliflower
Mmmm, it was a vinegary dinner but that made the hubby very happy. He LOVES vinegar!


To make the pork and cheese tortillas I started by taking the Traditional La Tortilla Factory Smart and Delicious Tortillas and wrapping them in foil. I let them warm in a 350° oven. Then I cut up some of the leftover pork roast.

Sorry about the fuzzy photo. The pork was NOT fuzzy. heh

I opened a jar of my home canned barbecue sauce and put it in a saucepan

Mmm, apple/cherry barbecue sauce

I added the sliced pork and heated it through

I then put a warmed tortilla on my plate

Added the pork mixture

Then I added some of my homemade goat's milk cheddar

I rolled it up. 
The hubby got two. I served it with the creamed cabbage (my mother's recipe. This will be the Tuesday Treat this week. It's really yummy!) and my home canned pickled cabbage.

It was very tasty! I will admit to unrolling mine at the table and adding the creamed cabbage and rolling it back up - that made it even better!

98% fat free, no trans fats and high fiber! How cool is that?!

Now, for the tortilla itself - it was delicious! It rolled beautifully without cracking like some I have worked with in the past. It added a perfect backdrop to the strong tastes of the barbecue sauce and vinegary cabbage. It had the perfect texture and I can't wait for my next meal with the other tortillas I have to try.

I have rosemary and traditional corn tortillas yet to try. Mmmm, I made the hubby a breakfast burrito this morning with a whole wheat tortilla. I will show you that later in the week. He was a happy man.
