TGIF!!!! Thank goodess it’s FRIDAY!!!
Okay,so maybe tomorrow is actually my Friday (Saturday), but hey I am always excited for something!
As many of you probably already know I own a little store called Mattie’s Pantry here in Hickory, NC. We pride ourselves mostly in the freshness of our spices and we have recently opened an online store too! I am getting to the point I promise! Anyways, I wrote a recipe for Mattie’s Pantry (Website here) where I made a gluten free zucchini pizza crust (Recipe here) that was out of this world amazing! It was quite a success on there!
SO, one day I was thinking… what do paleo dieters eat when they want a wrap or a taco of some kind? Lettuce? I felt like that could get kinda old… so I dreamt of these beauties! These paleo zucchini tortillas are amazing! I don’t know about you but I am all about options here and these paleo zucchini tortillas definitely give you options! Even if you aren’t a paleo dieter these paleo zucchini tortillas are so much fun and super yummy too! They are easy to dress up as soft tacos for dinner or have a breakfast burrito in the morning!
What else is so special about the paleo zucchini tortillas you ask? They are full of protein ,omega 3 fatty acids, calcium, Vitamin B6, B1 and B12 to ensure the optimal amount of energy. They are great at breakfast because of all the energy that can keep you going all day! One thing I loved about them too is that they kept me full. I just ate only one of them the other morning and I didn’t even think about lunch until it was about 4… about that time I told myself to get yourself a snack and be done with it because dinner was just around the corner!
Paleo Zucchini Tortillas
1 Medium and 1 small Zucchini or 3 small
1 Tbsp Coconut Flour
1/2 tsp Roasted Granulated Garlic
1/4 tsp Oregano
1/4 tsp Parsley
Pinch of Himalyan Pink Salt
1 egg
Preheat your oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit and let your bread stone warm up with it. (Let it get good and Hot!) Make sure there is a rack in the middle of the oven.
First shred up your zucchini with your shredder. Then take about 4 layers of paper towels and squeeze out all the water. Put into a mixing bowl.
Add in all your ingredients and mix away. Make sure you scramble your egg before mixing so that it mixes in. Divid your “dough” in 4 sections and pat down on a piece of parchment paper until they are about 6-8 inches in diameter and very thin. Take another piece of parchment paper and lay over top of the flat rounds and use a rolling pin to smooth out the hand prints, if you wish.
Place in oven and bake for about 9-10 minutes. Use a large cutting board to help with the transfer. They will get dark around the edges because of the moisture that was pushed to the outside and that is okay! Dress them however you would like! In this post I used scrambled eggs, bacon and mango salsa as a breakfast burrito, but I used them the other night as a soft taco! They also perfect if you want to make little mini pizzas too!
So, about that for some more variety in the paleo diet! Some of the recipes out there make me want to do it! But I love cheese way too much! I could it all but the cheese. Sadly it is a down fall I have.
Don’t forget to follow all of my adventures in and out of the kitchen! (I know sometimes I might dog spam…) You can follow me on Instagram (@notshabbygabby), Twitter (@Not2ShabbyGabby), Pinterest (@Not2ShabbyGabby) and Facebook! I am always having fun doing whatever I do! (Sometimes I am not always quite sure!)
Have a blessed day and weekend!

This zucchini tortillas looks tasty & delicious. #WAYWOW Linkup.
They are amazing!!
I love new tortilla recipes! I hate buying them because they are so easy to make. I love that these incorporate veggies! I’ve never done the paleo diet, though I do love reading about different recipes from it. My goal in life is to some day open up a cafe, do you enjoy owning your own store?
I do love it most days of course there are a couple of bad days but you just make the most of it! The good days by far out way the bad ones. I want to expand the store to include a bakery, deli and cafe style one day to include soups and sandwiches and we will get there! When opening any business it takes time to build it up and there is always work to be done. This and the other blog itself is it’s own business too! but it is more than more it!
These tortillas sound like a healthy paleo alternative! We’ve thought about doing paleo, and if we do, these will definitely come in useful. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by and sharing this recipe with us – you’re featured this week on Five Friday Finds! I’m looking forward to checking out your recipe this week. 🙂
Thank you CJ! I will be sure get on over there in a little bit!
I love these little tortillas. I think my kids would love them as mini pizzas. Would you back them like this and then add toppings and heat again till cheese is melted? Or is that too much heating? I want to try these out 🙂
Hi Kati! Yes I would cook them about 10 minutes before you put your toppings on! Then bake until cheese is to your liking basically! they are super yummy both ways! email me or comment if you have any more questions! Email- not2shabbygabby@gmail.com
This looks so amazing! I’m drooling right now! Pinned and tweeted. Thanks for stopping by and partying with us! I hope to see you on Monday at 7 pm, so we can pin and tweet your masterpieces! Lou Lou Girls
Love this, Gabby! Thanks for the inspiration–I almost always have zucchini on hand for spiralizing, etc. Looks quick and painless, too. Thank you 🙂 🙂

Thank you Kristina! I have never tried using a spiralor! I think it would be a lot of fun though! It is super quick compared to actual pizza dough and I just froze a whole bunch in my freezer already shredded.
Lettuce TOTALLY gets old. I LOVE what you’ve done with zucchinis here! I can’t wait to make these!
I know! I used to love lettuce wraps but I think I have just had them too much! I just had to think of something other than flour tortillas (they can fall flat too me!)
Gabby, pinning this too! I get a little sick of corn tortillas, I love them, but every once in a while I want something a bit different. This would be perfect! I’m going to make it a project to do with my vegetarian daughter! Perfect!!!
I know Nikki! I needed something different but tasty too!
Yummy this recipe sounds great! Great alternative to wraps! I’m near you in Waxhaw, NC!~ Thank you so much for linking up to Merry Monday this week! I am sharing your post today on my We hope to see you next week for another great party! Have a great week!

Kim

This is a great idea! I love how easy/healthy/yummy these look- I like the breakfast burrito idea, or could do a lot of diff. things with this- thanks for a paleo alt. ~
