Bake 3 minutes or until tortillas are warm and pliable; carefully fold tortillas in half and flip over, pressing gently to seal. Bake 5 minutes; remove from oven. Top each taco with scant tablespoon cheese. Return to oven; bake 5-7 minutes or until tortillas are golden and crispy and cheese is melted. Serve with desired toppings.
Tip #1
Heating tacos open-faced in the oven for a few minutes before folding allows the tortillas to become soft, pliable and easier to fold without breaking.
