Ingredients
Ingredients
- 8 flour tortillas (soft taco size)
- 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup olive oil
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1-2 tbsps grated parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400° F (204° C) and prepare an 8x8-inch baking dish.
- Fold the tortillas: Take each flour tortilla and fold it back and forth like an accordion. Once folded, place the tortillas snugly stacked together in the baking dish.
- Stuff with cheese: Evenly distribute about 1½ cups of shredded mozzarella cheese into the folds of the stacked tortillas, ensuring good coverage within the layers.
- Prepare seasoned oil: In a small bowl, whisk or blend ½ cup of olive oil with ½ teaspoon of salt, ½ teaspoon of black pepper, ½ teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning until well combined.
- Coat the tortillas: Spoon the seasoned olive oil mixture evenly over the top of the stacked tortillas, making sure to drench the folds and stirring occasionally to keep seasonings mixed.
- Add parmesan topping: Sprinkle 1-2 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese over the top of the tortillas for extra flavor and crispiness.
- Cover and bake: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven.
- Finish baking uncovered: Remove the foil carefully and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy.
Notes
- Reheat leftovers in an air fryer for 3-5 minutes to restore crispiness, making it taste fresh again.
- Customize by adding red pepper flakes for heat or fresh herbs like parsley or basil to enhance the flavor.
- Serve as an appetizer with dipping sauces such as pizza sauce or pesto for a delightful snack experience.
