Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • Unsalted butter (2 tablespoons)
  • Garlic (4 cloves, minced)
  • Cheddar cheese (1 cup, shredded)
  • Monterey Jack cheese (1 cup, shredded)
  • Mozzarella cheese (1 cup, shredded)
  • Parmesan cheese (1/2 cup, grated)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Pepper (to taste)
  • Flour tortillas (4 large)
  • Salsa or guacamole (for serving)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
  2. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute, being careful not to let it burn.
  3. Stir in the shredded cheddar, Monterey Jack, and mozzarella cheese. Cook until the cheeses are melted and well combined, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. Season the cheese mixture with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting according to your preference.
  5. Warm the flour tortillas in a separate skillet or in the microwave until they are pliable, making them easier to roll.
  6. Divide the cheesy garlic mixture evenly among the warm tortillas, spreading it out in the center.
  7. Generously sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top of the cheese mixture for an extra layer of flavor.
  8. Carefully fold the sides of each tortilla over the filling, then roll them up tightly to form burritos.
  9. Return the burritos to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
  10. Serve hot with your favorite salsa or guacamole for dipping, and enjoy!
