so, for this week i am posting 4 yummy recipes that are easy to make using tortillas. (actually i have only tried 3 of them, but the 4th looks really good) thank you for the idea ang!
the first one is:
chicken-fajita tostada and you can get the recipe here http://www.marthastewart.com/recipe/chicken-fajita-tostadas
this one is really good and very easy!
the second one is:
a two cheese tortilla pizza (i don't have a link, but this one is from everyday food magazine)
ingredients
-4 whole wheat tortillas (8inch)
-3 tsp olive oil
-2 cans (14.5ozs each) diced tomatoes, drained
-3/4 cup grated mozzarella
-1oz pecorino romano shaved with a vegetable peeler
-1/4 cup pitted kalamata olives halved
-1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
-1/2 cup fresh basil roughly torn
to make
-preheat oven to 450 with racks in upper & lower thirds. place tortillas on 2 rimmed baking sheets brush with 1 tsp oil. top with tomatoes, cheeses, olives and red pepper flakes. bake until crust is crisp and browned, 13 to 15 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. top pizzas with basil.
now, i dont follow the recipe fully- i skip the romano, use dried basil, add seasoning, add pepperoni... you can use whatever, its a quick yummy little pizza to make.
the third one is:
a grilled tortilla with cheese and pear. just heat some olive oil in a skillet put a whole wheat tortilla in. lay some cheese (cheddar is good) and some thinly sliced pear on top. now, you can either put another tortilla on top or fold this one over and cook flipping until each side is slightly browned and the cheese is melted. it may sound a little funny, but its good.
the fourth one is:
a fruity pizza (recipe from kiwi magazine) which i haven't tried yet, but looks good.

the fourth one is:
a fruity pizza (recipe from kiwi magazine) which i haven't tried yet, but looks good.
ingredients
-6 10-inch regular or whole wheat tortillas
-1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
-4 tsp turbinado sugar (regular sugar will be fine but the turbinado offers a yummy crunch)
-1tsp powdered cinnamon
-1/2cup seedless raspberry jam, room temperature
-2ozs white chocolate grated
-12 fresh strawberries, washed and sliced
to make
1. preheat oven to 350
2. use a large heart-shaped cookie cutter to make 12 hearts out of the 6 tortillas. (this is from the february issue:) place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
3. with a pastry brush spread a thin layer of melted butter evenly on all tortillas. sprinkle the sugar on all the hearts, about 1/3 tsp each, then dust with the powdered cinnamon.
4. bake for 3 minutes until light golden brown. remove from oven.
5. spread the raspberry jam on the tortillas, about 1/2 tsp to 3/4 tsp each, then sprinkle grated while chocolate on top.
6. bake again for 2 minutes. remove from the oven and add sliced strawberries. serve warm or cold.
so, i hope you give one of these a try and enjoy it as much as i do!
