Love these! I made them last night for dinner, with one substitution: I used regular Monterey Jack instead of Pepper Jack. My family doesn't like things real hot, and I figured since the salsa was at medium heat, that would be enough. It was... What caught my eye was the use of flour tortllas. I wasn't sure it would work, but it did. They got firm and crunchy. Definitely a keeper! Thanks.

I love to cook, to feed people and to experiment. Unfortunately I have a very limited audience, so most of my creations are reserved for me alone. My BF is a sort of picky eater and all of my favorites he dislikes, so I'm learning how to get around lots of ingredients. Like mushrooms (so sad), tomatoes and onions... who cooks without onions? In this one way, it's almost a good thing that our schedules allow for only 3 meals a weeks together :-)
