Soft Veggie Tacos with Green Tortillas
Health Highlights
If you don’t have a tortilla press, use a rolling pin or a tall glass jar. Use a piece of parchment paper to roll these out so they don’t stick to your counter.

Ingredients


1 cup Cassava flour (for the tortillas)
1 tbsp Coconut flour (for the tortillas)
3/4 tsp Sea salt, fine (for the tortillas)
1/2 tsp Baking powder, gluten-free (for the tortillas)
2/3 cup Water, filtered (lukewarm; for the tortillas)
1/2 cup Cilantro (coriander) (packed; chopped; for the tortillas)
3 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil (for the tortillas)
1/2 tsp Apple cider vinegar (for the green sauce)
1 cup Coconut milk, sweetened (full-fat; for the green sauce)
1 cup Cilantro (coriander) (packed; chopped; for the green sauce)
1 1/2 tbsp Lime juice (fresh) (for the green sauce)
1/2 tsp Sea salt, fine (or more, to taste; for the green sauce)
2 cup Arugula (for garnish)
1 cup slices Peach (firm; cut julienne style; for garnish)
2 avocado(s) Avocado (thinly sliced; for garnish)
1/2 cucumber(s) Cucumber (thinly sliced; for garnish)
1 cup Cilantro (coriander), dried (chopped; for garnish)

Instructions


To make the tortillas:

  1. Combine cassava flour, coconut flour, sea salt, and baking powder in a bowl. Mix well.
  2. Add water, olive oil, vinegar, and cilantro to a high-speed blender and mix on high until thoroughly blended, about 30 seconds.
  3. Add liquid mixture to dry ingredients and mix with a spatula to roughly combine. Finish by kneading a few times with your hands until a smooth dough forms.
  4. Divide dough in half, then divide each half into 3 equal portions, forming little balls. Roll out each ball between 2 sheets of parchment paper to form a thin, round circle of about 6 inches in diameter. Insert a piece of parchment paper between each tortilla so they don't stick.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each tortilla, uncovered, until the bottom shows little golden spots, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1 1/2 to 2 minutes on the other side.

 

To assemble the tortillas:

  • Divide equally arugula, peaches, avocados, and cucumber between the tortillas.
  • Garnish with chopped cilantro and drizzle with green sauce. Bon appétit!
