If there's one thing you'll find on a Mexican table, it's tortillas. They're a staple in Mexican cuisine whether it's used to eat or cook with.

What an awesome collection of recipes!! YUM! One of my favorite ways to use tortillas is as a extra thin pizza crust. Super quick and a lot healthier and a traditional crust.
