Dietician Tip

Tortillas come in two basic types: corn and wheat. Wheat tortillas, made from white flour, are often labeled “flour tortillas.” Whole-wheat tortillas are made from whole-grain flour.

Directions

In a bowl, combine peppers, onion and cumin. Sprinkle each tortilla with cheese, using 1/4 cup cheese on each. Divide pepper mixture among tortillas, spreading it over cheese. Fold each tortilla in half and put in greased 9-by-13-inch baking pan.

Cover pan with foil. Bake at 350 F for 10 to 15 minutes, or until cheese melts. Remove foil. Cut each tortilla into 4 pieces. Serve with your favorite salsa for dipping.
