Very easy and quick to put together for a snack! I used a Mexican blend cheese and seasoned my tomato with a bit of cumin and chili powder. These were delicious with a side of homemade salsa and sour cream! Read More

This was just okay. The family didn't like the corn in it but that is just personal taste. I happened to like the corn. There is just nothing special about these. They were actually kind of bland. I put the tomato inside instead of on top so that it would be easier for the kids to eat. I agree with others though bland and if I make them again I'll be spicing them up a bit. Read More

Ok I never give 5 stars to anything I have to tweak. But with a little work these are really very good. I took the basic set-up and altered it. The original recipe was way too bland for our tastes. I layered the first tortilla with a Mexican blend cheese and a Monterey-Jack jalepeno cheese then salsa then more cheese. The cheese on both sides helps the tortillas stay together when you flip them. Cook over a very low heat so the cheese gets melted and the tortilla doesn't burn then serve with sour cream. Read More

I made these as a side dish for the aztec chicken recipe also found on this site. My family loved them. They also used them to spoon up the main dish. I made them ahead of time and then just heated them up in the oven and then served them with a cup of salsa. Read More

These are very good and very simple to make. I put salsa right in them for an added flavor and then served then with sour cream. You could add a whole lot to these too. I had to add scallions because I love them. Very good! Read More

These were good! I used all cheddar since thats all I had on hand I also added the tomato to the inside instead of on top. The corn really added a nice sweetness to balance the inferno chili I made for dinner. Read More
