Notes: These are just so, so good! Truly an excellent recipe. I recommend putting the sauce on the tortilla first-- a super thin layer covering the entire tortilla so that you get the mild kick of the sauce in each bite. To warm the tortillas, lay one on a plate, cover with a damp paper towel, and continue to layer tortilla, towel, tortilla towel, and microwave about 25 seconds. Just a great meal-- fabulous for casual entertaining.
