Cooking Tips
🫓 Tortillas
- Warm tortillas in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side for pliable results.
- Corn tortillas are more traditional; flour tortillas are softer and larger.
- Wrap tortillas in a damp towel and microwave for 30 seconds to steam them.
Nutrition: Corn tortillas are lower calorie and gluten-free. One flour tortilla has about 150 calories.
Storage: Refrigerate for up to 1 week. Freeze for up to 3 months.
🧀 Cheese
- Bring cheese to room temperature 30 minutes before serving for best flavor.
- Grate your own cheese — pre-shredded contains anti-caking agents that affect melting.
- Add cheese at the end of cooking on low heat to prevent it from becoming rubbery.
Nutrition: High in calcium, protein, and phosphorus. Varies by type — mozzarella is lower fat, cheddar is higher.
Storage: Wrap in parchment paper, then plastic wrap. Hard cheeses last weeks; soft cheeses use within days.
