  2. Heat the tortillas following the packet instructions. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the mixture into each tortilla. Roll and put on a lightly greased baking tray. Make sure the seam is facing down so they don’t unravel in the oven.
  3. Sprinkle cheese over the top and put into preheated grill until cheese melts for about 3-4 mins.
