Homemade Corn Tortillas are much better than the store bought tortillas. They are healthier, taster and much cheaper than the store bought ones. They’re extremely versatile and can be eaten in so many different ways – as a taco, a quesadilla, a burrito, a simple side used to soak up delicious saucy dishes, fried or baked to make tortilla chips or tostadas.
