I’ve seen a person go from hating Brussel sprouts to eating an entire plate of those bad boys just by roasting them, roasting brings out the party side of veggies, and I think we all know how exquisite a good cheese added to any veggie can be!
So for this recipe I do both, I add cheese and I roast the veggies, then finally I wrap with a warm tortilla and melt everything together producing some beautiful bites!
The creamy Spanish Rice compliments this dish perfectly and should be enjoyed with fresh Pico de Gallo then dipped in sour cream!
