Provided by CookingONTheSide

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 (6 inch) flour tortillas
1 1/2 cups taco cheese, shredded (can use sharp cheddar or Monterey Jack as well or mix the two)
1/2 cup salsa

  • Sprinkle cheese evenly among the four tortillas.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 7-10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cheese: Monterey Jack cheese is the best choice for these crisps because it melts easily and has a mild flavor. You can also use other types of cheese, such as cheddar, mozzarella, or Parmesan, but the results may vary.
  • Grate the cheese finely: This will help the cheese melt evenly and prevent it from clumping together.
  • Use a non-stick skillet: This will prevent the crisps from sticking to the pan and make them easier to flip.
  • Cook the crisps over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly without burning.
  • Flip the crisps carefully: Use a spatula to gently flip the crisps so that they don't break.
  • Season the crisps to taste: You can add salt, pepper, garlic powder, or other seasonings to the crisps before or after they are cooked.
