These tortillas are easy to make and you can use them for quesadillas, chimichangas, and Mexican burritos. Fill them with ham, chicken, beef, eggs, cheese, or anything you like. They're great for serving as a snack.
I especially like them for breakfast, filled with scrambled eggs. I add ham, sausage, and cheese.
When I mention cups, tablespoons, and teaspoons, they are all level and use standard US measuring cups and spoons.

    Lightly flour the counter and use a rolling pin to roll each ball into a circle about 8 inches (20 cm) in diameter.
    Heat a steel skillet over medium heat and cook the tortillas on both sides until golden.
