OMG! Those sound divine. I left my tortilla make in WA - I will have to get a new one. (Or just buy some really beautiful tortillas from the store). Thank you!

Figured you'd jump on this one. Sounds good to me, too!!

What sounds even better is a hint Jack's wife gave me last night - sprinkle the tortilla with parm while it is heating on the griddle or grill. Sounds awfully good to me, especially with the Porchetta. I have porchetta in the freezer.

Oh, that's an idea from a California taco stand place. Can't remember the name of it, but there was one in Auburn. So darn good!

That does sound really good, Jean. Copied!

I posted pix on FB - will try to get them on photobucket and then on here - OMG - these are the best tacos ever. If I've repeated myself - sorry. Internet is flaky tonight. GRRRRRR.

I'd better keep this one handy.

Oh yes! Keep it handy. I might have a leftover for breakfast!
