http://www.facebook.com/pages/Tio-Pablo/123686161044613?ref=ts I have a

love for Mexican food. Its taste and flavour is different from my Sicilian heritage but when I look at how they do things they are similar in processes, just different ingredients. The are all about flavour, taste and good food that can be very quick to prep and plate.

There is a lot of discussion within the Gluten free community that they can’t find good wraps. The solution is Tio Pablo Tortillas.
Their authentic corn tortillas are a staple in Mexican cuisine and are made in Aucklandand delivered “fresh in store”.
Used in a variety of dishes, such as tacos, enchiladas and even in soup, Tio Pablo tortillas are naturally gluten and dairy free.  
Tio Pablo bakes four times a week, using Californian masa harina flour (non GM seed and grown away from GM crops) on a machine sourced from Guadalajara, Mexico.

It’s the way that they are make, true to the age old traditional methods that make them what they are.


Over the next few months I will be working up recipes, simple and fast to do for lunch box and after school snack ideas. Their Tio Pablo Authentic Corn Tortillas have so many options and its going to be a lot of fun doing recipes with them.
