I've had several people tell me they don't eat flax...so it would be great if it substitutes well. <br /><br />I have a bag of ground chia in the fridge. I've used it before but can't recall what for? I think it was to thicken the blueberries in a blueberry crisp I did for the Wheat Free Market (in place of cornstarch or tapioca)...and it worked nicely. :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-22242564397116402222014-06-12T21:43:19.108-04:002014-06-12T21:43:19.108-04:00Hi GGC,

I haven't tried this yet, but I'm quite interested to see how well it works.CyberSishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12785005260630246224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-63278710091231653872014-06-06T22:56:21.857-04:002014-06-06T22:56:21.857-04:00Hi Ann,

I haven't tried subbing anything in these before but you could try replacing it with either ground chia seed or coconut flour. If you try that,let me know how it works! :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-64086307404986443412014-06-06T22:51:23.350-04:002014-06-06T22:51:23.350-04:00Your recipes sound AMAZING.

If they thaw nicely, it would be great to have them on hand to pull out and use. I will do a test tortilla here soon and freeze it to see how it does during the thaw process. If you decide to try it before I do, I would only try it with one or two first "just in case". Hope you enjoy them! :-)<br />Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-43934681274601722332013-10-29T19:04:23.759-04:002013-10-29T19:04:23.759-04:00Hi GGC,

Questions: If I made some tortillas in advance, do you know if they would freeze/thaw well? If yes, what "thawing" instructions do you suggest?Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08611367661886531877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-19305520323372075042013-10-02T07:43:54.740-04:002013-10-02T07:43:54.740-04:00Hi CyberSis!

I think the chipotle powder helps give them flavor that complements the fajitas I put in them. Depending on what you were using them for you could add chili powder, etc. -- it was enough where I didn't taste egg at all while having my fajita -- and trust me, it was OVER-stuffed and they held up well. :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-85504383077554914492013-10-02T02:03:25.149-04:002013-10-02T02:03:25.149-04:00Hi GGC,

I don't care for coconutty, eggy wraps and rolls for savory dishes, either. This is a great solution. I've been using an almond flour pancake/crepe for your enchilada casserole. Works great for that, but I doubt it would hold up as a fajita wrap. Will have to try this one. I really like wraps that you pour into a pan, rather than rolling out ... I made an awful mess of those the first few times I tried *that* kind of tortilla! I ended up just giving up on them and went looking for a crepe recipe! :-)CyberSishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12785005260630246224noreply@blogger.com
