Veggie Tortilla Appetizers

I had some friends visiting recently and needed to throw a quick appetizer together and this is what I came up with.  They loved them!  These would be good to take to all those Memorial Day picnics.

I think tortillas are so versatile.  Besides making your traditional burritos and fajitas with them, I have made tortilla noodles with them (see my tortilla soup recipe) as well as main meals (such as margherita pizza and black bean quesadillas) and the sky's the limit when it comes to using them to make appetizers. Feel free to add your own ideas in making this appetizer and then share with us the concoctions you come up with.
