Tackling the Tortilla

I wanted to make flour tortillas from scratch today, but when I googled recipes, most of them called for lard. Oh gosh, I thought to myself. I am trying to be healthy, and here are all these recipes with lard. Ew.

So after a bit more browsing, I found a great recipe for tortillas from Homesick Texan. Great I say because my tortillas tasted awesome, and best of all, they had no lard!
