100glight tasty cheese, shredded

Method
- Combine filling ingredients in a bowl.
- Place tortilla on a flat surface and fill 1 half with the filling and fold over making a half circle shape. (Shape should now look like this - D).
- Place "D" shaped tortilla with filling into preheated sandwich press and grill until filling is hot, cheese is melted and tortilla is golden brown.
- Remove and rest for a minute before cutting so the cheese can reset a little. This helps to prevent the filling toppling out and sticking to packaging.
- Cut into quarters and serve 2 wedges per serve or as appropriate for your age group.

Variations
Flat bread or wraps can be substituted (look for varieties with low salt).
Can serve with a “dipping sauce”.
We recommended mixing a tin of crushed tomatoes and a sprinkle of paprika and cumin together.
Dispense 1/8 cup or 30mL into a dipping container.
