Join the discussionWhat are you supposed to do with the frozen tortillas on cook day (Make from Frozen)?
According to the recipe this was adapted from, you simply thaw in the refrigerator. If you like, you can also warm tortillas in microwave or lightly toast on a griddle or grill pan. I hope that helps!
