If you're similar to me, you probably overlook tortillas while you're grocery shopping. However, I recently realized that tortillas are the most versatile food ingredient that might have ever existed. Seriously, you can use tortillas for any meal. Plus, they are relatively cheap so you have no excuse to not buy them. Check out all the possible meals you can make with them below.
