    That looks incredible. It’s amazing what technique can accomplish.

    The mass produced flour tortillas, as much as it pains me to say, last an insane amount of time in the fridge. You can even bring them back from being dried out in the microwave. I make every type of quesadilla after I have tacos and then do peanut butter wraps as snacks and still have enough left to fry in my recycled oil for chips and dip. I had leftover stew for work the other day but no bread and tortilla spoons were awesome.

    Is it $.15 or $.50 OP? Your post on r/tonightsdinner says $.15

  9. As a Mexican these are awesome

    EDIT: Try them on flour tortillas!

    Goes to show that budget food doesn’t need to look like budget food. That is incredible and I’m going to make it tomorrow. Thank you for sharing!

    This is a great alternative to meat-based Quesadillas and Havarti is an absolutely underrated cheese. It’s one of my favorites. Some roasted garlic cloves would be the finishing touch for me.
