Whole Wheat Tortillas (level 1 - carb)

3 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1 1/2 cups warm water

Mix flour and salt in a bowl. Add the water and mix into a nice dough. Knead until soft and elastic. At this point, you can let the dough rest for an hour or so, but it isn’t necessary. Pinch off a chunk of dough, roll into a smooth ball (golf ball size) with your hands, then flatten on a floured surface. With a rolling pin roll into a thin circle. Be generous with the flour to avoid sticking. Cook on a medium hot griddle until delicately beige and specked with brown. Don't use oil on the griddle.
