I used reduced fat Colby Jack cheese instead of fontina. Really good!

Love, love loved this recipe! So easy and delicious. It will be fun to switch up the cheese and see what combinations we can come up with!

Reviewed on Mar. 10, 2011 by Tinabear39

These are great. I have also made them into burritos and tossed em in the freezer to heat in microwave anytime.

Your idea sounds great -- thanks!! L

I make breakfast tacos....same thing except I use cheddar cheese, shredded hash browns and either bacon or sausage with scrambled eggs in a soft tortilla. Yum

This is really good, but you can use any type cheese you prefer. And for the other comment on how to grate Fontina cheese. Put it in the freezer for a little while and you can use a food prosessor or hand grate it must easier.

A tip on how to grate the fontina would have been nice -- it is a very soft cheese & not easily grated!!!
