Not super common but commen enough and just for a snack, but I like using tortillas if there's no bread in my apartment. I use them for things like peanut butter and mayonnaise wraps and peanut butter and butter wraps.
I also sometimes use tortillas for leftovers in general, depending on the leftovers from the night before. Last time there was leftover homemade mac and cheese and catfish, I heated them and had that wrapped in a plain tortilla with nothing else for breakfast.
Peanut butter and butter? PB and mayonnaise?!?
Gross
Try PB&B on warm toast.
Definitely not an every day treat.
Step 1: butter the toast or English muffin Step 2: apply peanut butter Step 3: bliss. Stop yourself from eating the whole loaf
I used to pre-mix peanut butter and a sick of butter in my kitchen aid and leave it in the fridge for this exact reason.
Sometimes I'd also add Sriracha
On the area of Mexico that I grew up in, every morning (or every other morning) you would buy fresh corn tortillas for the family. We’d make a taco out of anything.
There is a macaroni salad (with lettuce, peas, carrots, etc.) served at weddings and special events people sometimes pair it with mole sauce and add it to a taco (tortilla) - the main dish is mole with chicken and rice and beans, but people in my region would not think of a Mac and cheese taco as too strange.
My mom also used to make a canned tuna mix (mayo, tomato, onion, lime, salt and pepper) that we would pair with a tortilla and it slaps. I’ve feed this to people from the US and they came back for a second and third taco.
We also would pair a rolled up tortilla with soups (chicken, beef, fish) and used it to push the veggies and meat into a spoon while taking a bite of the part that got souped up.
Corn goes surprisingly well with both sweet/savory (mole) and salty (meats, etc). I’ve never thought of pairing it with PB, but I can see how it might work. If you were referring to flour tortillas, those tend to have a slightly sweet profile, so it seems it could work.
Uuyyyyy me acordé de los taquitos de manteca con sal el fila de las tortillas. Que delicia!
...you're a bad person and you should feel bad, but i used to like tuna casserole when i was growing up which i think is like blue-box macaroni and cheese, canned tuna, cream of mushroom soup, frozen peas, and crushed ruffles baked together...
...maybe?..i don't think i've eaten it since the seventies since my stepfather hated it, so i might not quite be remembering it correctly...
I'll definitely throw a can of tuna on a box of Mac to get some protein in there. It somehow feels slightly classier than the cut up hotdogs of my childhood
Same here, a few more tips for tortillas.
Stack two tortillas and use for pizza crust.
Brown, brown beef, chopped up small and put in freezer. To use as a topping for burritos.
Layer the tortilla with refied beans. Add the frozen ground beef and cheese. Throw in a toaster oven for about five minutes and Add sauce. For a perfect burrito Or pizza.
Super easy and quick meal or snack.
