  • dried oregano or Italian seasoning optional
  • crushed red pepper flakes optional

Instructions
 

  • Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat.

  • Add a pinch of oregano or red pepper flakes if using.
  • Fold tortilla in half and place in hot skillet.
  • Cook 1–2 minutes per side until golden brown and cheese is melted.
