I am now over 120 days into my food elimination and rotation diet. See this post to understand food sensitivities. At 90 days I was able to start to rotate back into my diet most of the 37 foods to which I had IgG food sensitivities. I am happy to report that I have been able to add almost all the limited foods. Bread like products have probably been the hardest food to substitute. One of my favorites is this Garbanzo-Sorghum Tortillas that I invented out of desperation. But, it is a keeper! I am still rotating foods and plan to continue to do so. Here is the recipe:
1. Heat a cast iron griddle
2. In a bowl whisk together 1/2 cup Garbanzo Flour, 1/2 Cup Tapioca Flour, 3/4 Cup Sweet Sorghum Flour. A bit Salt (optional)
3. In a small bowl place about 3 tablespoons of oil – Actually Ghee, melted Butter or Coconut Oil works better with a cast iron skillet.
4. Stir about 1/2 cup of warm water into flours. Stir until moisten. Batter will be stiff enough to handle with your hands. Like a very soft clay.
Take a walnut size bit of dough, dip into oil and roll out in between parchment paper.
This next part is what makes this work:
Lift off one side of parchment. While still holding the parchment paper, lay the tortilla right onto the cast iron skillet. After a few seconds the tortilla will separate from the paper, letting you lift the parchment right off. Cook each side, pressing with a metal spatula. Place cooked tortilla in between a cotton dishtowel. The tortilla will become softer as it steams. Enjoy!

These sound really good and healthy Gloria! They also seem easy to make.
