Intyeresting ideas for tortilla's
Many ideas to use tortilla's and although I'm sure they all taste good to someone, most tend to lay on the fringes of my likes.

The Hectic Cook's Best Friend

As an ocean going chef the "101" cookbook series is the chef/cook's best friend. I found a collection of these very handy cookbooks on my last ship and I knew I had to have my own copies. The ship was short handed and it ran out of basic cooking & baking supplies. These cookbooks gave excellent and simple meal preperation ideas with the few supplies & staff we did have. It's all common sense but these ladies take the brain damage out of meal planning. Most importantly, the crew was always satisfied. I'd recommend the series for the beginning cook or one that is short on time.

tortillas: the edible canvas
Stephanie Ashcraft is someone who understands how to unlock the potential of the tortilla. Though this delicacy has long been recognized as a favorite by mid-century minimalists such as Yves Klein and Josef Albers, Ashcraft proves the tortilla is a relevant medium for contemporary art as well. Her stirring arrangements of lettuce and shredded cheese display a keen sensitivity to color and emotion, and establish her as the unrivalled queen of postmodern cookery.

Also, she demonstrates out that the tortilla can be used as a frisbee, a parachute for small pets, and--with a little creative hole-punching--a terrifying face-mask! The possibilities are truly endless.
