1

Arrange 1/2 ounce of cheese on one side of a nonstick skillet in a 5- by 2-inch rectangle. Turn heat to medium-low. When cheese begins to melt, place 1 tortilla on top of cheese so that roughly half the cheese is covered by the tortilla.

2

Let cheese cook until it turns an even golden brown color. Remove pan from heat and let stand until cheese cools and firms up slightly.

3

Carefully slide a thin spatula under cheese and remove tortilla from pan. Fill as desired (see notes) and serve immediately. Repeat with remaining cheese and tortillas.
