ANTOJITOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F.
• Place cream cheese in a microwaveable bowl. Microwave for 10-15 seconds, just to soften (give it another 5-10 seconds if cream cheese is cold, but be careful not to melt!). Add the rest of the filling ingredients to the bowl and mix thoroughly to combine. Be sure to add salt and pepper, to taste.
• Lay out 3 large tortillas. Divide the filling between the 3 tortillas. Using an offset spatula or the back of a spoon, spread the filling over the tortilla, getting as close the edge as you can. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over-top, dividing it between the 3 tortillas.
• Roll up tortillas: With the tortilla in front of you, fold in about 3/4-inch of the tortilla over the filling at the 3-o'clock and 9 o'clock position, just to straighten up the sides a bit. Then, starting with the edge closest to you, roll the tortilla up jelly-roll style. Place on a baking sheet, with the seam down. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
• Cut the tortillas: Brush tortillas with melted butter, then make 3 slices about halfway through (not all the way through!) the roll as shown here - / | (so with tortilla horizontally in front of you, about one quarter in from the left, make one diagonal slice to the right, then make one slice in the middle straight up and down and then one quarter in from the right, make one diagonal slice to the left.
• Bake tortillas for 18-20 minutes, or until crisp and golden. Remove from oven and finish cutting through the slices you made before baking to make 4 pieces from each roll.
• Serve with sour cream garnished with diced green onion and a splash of Srirarcha, if you like.
• These can be made ahead. Wrap well in plastic wrap and store in the fridge for a day or double wrap and freeze. Thaw at room temperature in wrapping, then brush with butter, slice and bake as usual.

MONTANA'S ANTOJITOS RECIPE

Steps:

• Note: I add my veggies to a food processor to chop them finely. You want small veggies here, trust me. Also, if you find the veggies are watery, squeeze out the water from the veggies in a paper towel. It will make a difference.
• Preheat oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Mix all the ingredients together (except the tortillas) in a mixing bowl. Evenly divide the mixture between 4-5 tortillas and spread out the best you can (staying about 1/2 an inch or 1 inch from the outer edges of the tortillas.) Roll the tortillas up and place onto baking sheet. Add about 5 slices across the top of each tortilla.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes or until cheese is nice and hot. Allow to cool before slicing into pinwheels.
• Note: I have heard about people cutting the tortillas into pin wheels before baking them. It would probably be a lot easier and less of a chance of squishing the cheese everywhere.

ANTOJITOS (INCREDIBLY SIMPLE)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F (Note, you can set the oven to a higher temperature but 375 usually allows all the ingredients to blend better for a more tasty result).
• Spread cream cheese on the spinach tortilla(s) until entirely covered. To cut down on spill while eating, leave at least 1cm of the outer edge clean of cream cheese. You can adjust how much cream cheese you use based on how you like it but a good guide is to spread just enough that you can no longer see the tortilla under the cream cheese and not over 3mm in thickness.
• Sprinkle a pinch of cayenne pepper over all of the cream cheese. ** Use cayenne pepper wisely. The longer it is cooked, the spicier it gets so do not sprinkle too much unless you like it that way.
• Roll up the tortilla and put in the oven. Cook time is about 7-10 minutes or until tortilla starts to brown.
• Cut tortilla roll into slices with thickness of about 3cm or so.
• Serve immediately with salsa, sour cream, and/or guacamole as desired.
