4 c white flour
1/4 c wheat flour
1 tb baking powder

1/4 c vegetable oil
1/4 c milk

In a large bowl place the white flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder

Add the oil, milk, and water. Mix the ingredients together so that they
are well blended and a dough is formed.

With oiled hands, form twelve 2-inch balls by rolling some of the dough in
your palms.
Roll out each ball so that it forms a 1/8-inch thick circle.
On a heated grill place the tortillas. Cook them for 2 minutes on each
side, or until they are done.
Makes 1 dozen tortillas.

Mrs. Martinez de Sanchez.
