The easiest and most wholesome tortillas ever! They’re naturally vegan, gluten-free, high-protein, and wonderfully soft and flexible. And the best part, only two ingredients needed!

All you need to make these wraps are wholegrain raw quinoa and water, that’s it! Anything else is optional, you can add extra vegetables to give them more nutrients and colors – beetroot for pink, spinach for green, turmeric for yellow, etc.

You can also season them to be either savory or sweet – for savory wraps, you can add salt, paprika, cumin, garlic, or onion powder; for sweet, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, cocoa powder… the possibilities are endless! And of course you can add many different combos of savory or sweet fillings.

Be sure to soak the quinoa overnight and discard the soaking water! The soaking process is crucial in removing the antinutrients from quinoa grains, making them easier to cook and digest.


2-Ingredient Quinoa Tortilla
Ingredients
Method
- Rinse the quinoa a few times then transfer them to an airtight container, add at least 3-4 times of water, and let them soak in the fridge overnight;
- The next day, discard the soaking water, rinse one more time, and transfer to a high speed blender;
- Add the fresh cup of water, you can keep them plain as is or add anything else you’d like, vegetables for colors, spices, seasonings, etc;
- Blend until completely smooth, it should be a fluid batter, not too thick or sticky;
- Use a large nonstick pan, depending on the type of pan you’re using, add oil if needed;
- Heat the pan sufficiently over medium-high heat, then lower to medium, add the batter and quickly spread it out evenly, the amount of batter you add here depends on how big you want your tortilla to be!
- Let the batter cook for 4-5 minutes, until the top is dry and the bottom has come loose and easily movable, slide a spatula underneath, flip, and cook for another minute or so;
- Repeat until you finish all the batter, this amount can make 3-4 large tortillas and more if you make them smaller;
- Add any fillings you like and enjoy!
