Whilte taking a trip to the Grand Canyon, my family drove through the Navajo reservation and stopped at a little cafe for dinner. I complimented the young Navajo waiter on the delicious bread and he gave me the recipe. It is very easy to make.

My husband raved and raved about how good this was. I thought it was very good too. I made it with healthy canola oil. One small problem - when I added the hot water, it didn't mix up into a dough, so I added more water until it was a stiff doughy consistency and it turned out fine. Very easy to make.
