What is a tortilla hack?
This is a TikTok trend that has become a regular in our kitchen! Lay out a tortilla and make a cut half way up along the bottom of the tortilla, so that you have four quadrants. Put your ingredients in the four areas of the tortilla- chicken in one section, bacon in another, ranch and cheese in another.
To wrap your tortilla, you’re going to lay the four sections on top of each other. So fold the portion of the tortilla that is to the left of the cut you made earlier on top of the section above it. So if you laid out your tortilla as chicken in the bottom left, bacon in the top left, ranch in the top right and cheese in the bottom right, you would be placing chicken over bacon.
Continue with the other side- you will fold the two sections (hypothetically, chicken and bacon) to the right upper corner of the tortilla. So in our scenario, fold these two sections over your ranch. After you’ve done that, fold the three sections into the bottom right, so our cheese.
