This was GREAT, true! JUST what I feel like for dinner too! Here's a helpful hint in case you don't know! In the microwave the torillas should go! Zap for 15 - 20 seconds...depends on you, Be easier to roll...to do! Also put refreied beans in pan, took off heat...worked for me, Made it spreadable as can be! THANKS!
