- 8-10 corn tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheese (Monterey Jack or Cheddar blend)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

Pro Tips
Warming the tortillas and keeping them in a sealed plastic bag helps retain moisture, preventing cracks during assembly.
Monterey Jack or a Cheddar blend melts beautifully, enhancing the taco's flavor and texture.
Avoid over-brushing tortillas with oil to ensure optimal crispiness. For extra crunch, broil the tacos for an additional 2 minutes after baking, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
