Norwegian Lefse

My grandma used to make this for our family when we were growing up. Traditionally, this is a very long and labor intensive process, but I found an easier way... YAY! For those of you who don't know what Lefse is- it's like a potato based tortilla. Yum!

Ingredients

• 2 cups of plain mashed potatoes

• flour
