Snack wrap

My kids have been asking for snack wrap, so it was time to figure out a way to make them gluten free.

Tortillas:

1/2 cup gluten free flour(1/2 cup regular flour for non gluten free)

1/2 cup corn meal

1 cup of water

1 egg

Mix it all together to make a thin batter and transfer to a measuring container.

Heat up a non stick frying pan, after pan is hot turn to medium heat.

Pour batter into hot pan and swirl the batter around the pan. Cook on this side til the edges begin to curve up, then flip for the other side. Remove from pan place on a paper towel and cover with another paper towel. Make sure you mix the batter before you pour your next one into the pan. 

 Fill with what ever you would like and enjoy.  

 Now if you want take the snack wrap let it sit for a day, then throw it in the deep fryer and you have home made corn chips

fried chicken with homemade honey mustard

Here we go, lets grab our supplies;

mustard, any kind you like
eggs, we use brown
a dash of milk
sea salt
pepper
sweet rice flour or regular rice flour
regular flour for non gluten free
a zip lock bag
boneless, skinless chicken

I will give you more items to grab later for a home made hone mustard sauce for dipping fun

The batter. I used 5 eggs, about 1/4 cup of mustard, salt and pepper to your liking, and a dash of milk. Mix it all together.  So take your chicken and give it a bath in the egg mixture.

So place your sweet rice, or rice flour and put it in your zip lock bag, toss in your dipped chicken pieces. Close the zip lock bag and toss the chicken around until it is well coated. Now off to the sauna of hot oil it goes. Canola or peanut oil are good ones to use for deep frying, healthier as well, but use what you have on hand. Our pieces are small so it took about 10 minutes in the deep fryer. Place the cooked pieces on a plate. Now lets make your dipping sauce.

All right home made honey mustard sauce. Very simple and you probably have everything you need already. So we need 
mayo, for  my husband and I, I did 5 heaping tbs.
mustard, I used 2 different kinds, one was a spicy mustard the other was regular mustard. Jut a few squirts of the spicy and 3 good squirts of the regular.
Honey of course about 1 big tbs
and extra virgin olive oil, just a few drizzles.
salt and pepper to taste.
Mix it up, give it a taste add accordingly.

We had mashed potatoes and corn to go with ours. Plate it all up and our ready for some fantastic fried chicken with home made honey mustard.
