  1. What a neat recipe! The only thing I did differently was to cook the weiners on the bbq, rather than fry them. I typically do weiners wrapped up in Pillsbury Crescent Rolls when I want to do something different with them, but I decided to try this for lunch today in honour of the Zaar Mexicana Cook-A-Thon and I'm glad I did. They're easy, tasty, and my family woofed them down; my teenage son even asked that I do them again :-) Thanks for sharing!
     
  2. DH & I loved them! I used Nathans "Bigger-Than-The-Bun" Franks, Mission medium soft flour tortillas, 4-cheese Mexican blend, and added sauteed chopped onions. I didn't fry the tortillas - just sprayed both sides with butter-flavor cooking spray, put the franks in them, then onions, then cheese. I rolled them up and stuck a toothpick in each to secure, sprinkled with a tad more cheese, then baked at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. I removed the toothpicks, garnished with salsa and served with sides of beans and slaw. Thanks Lori for a delicious, easy recipe.
     
  3. Can not believe there is no OVEN TEMP for this recipe!!!!!!!!!!! Guessing at 350 degrees F????
     
  4. This reminds me of a recipe my mom used to make when we were kids, only she made them with bread and American cheese slices. I like this recipe because it's gluten-free and very easy to make! I enjoyed them dipped in a little ketchup.
     
  5. What a unique quick dinner! I had some leftover pinto beans and two tamales that we had with these. I was thinking of lots of variations lol! Next time I will crumble some cooked bacon inside the tortilla too! Thank you for a fun dinner on a boring Monday evening.

  1. I cooked Turkey Sausage on the grill (to cut some calories) and used whole wheat tortillas instead of the corn. Topped with Pepper Jack Cheese and we were ready to go! Everyone enjoyed these for a change of pace. I dipped mine in ketchup. Very tasty! I might try some sauteed onions on mine next time, and there WILL be a next time :)
