1 1/2 c flour
1 t. baking powder

3.  Open the bag and add the hot tap water.  Knead in the bag until the dough is one large piece and all the sides of the bag come clean.
4.  Take the dough out of the bag and divide into four pieces.  Put the pieces of dough on the table and lay the bag on top of them.  Let the dough rest for 15 minutes.

6.  Fill torillas with ground beef, beans, salsa, cheese and lettuce to  make burritos, if desired, or spread with butter or peanut butter.
