Method
Preheat the oven to 350°F (350°F).
Take the flour tortilla and cut it into four equal pieces.
Place a small amount of mashed potatoes on each tortilla piece as a base layer.
Add the cooked ground meat mixed with tomato on top of the potatoes.
Sprinkle or lay shredded/sliced cheese over the meat.
Use a splash of water as a binder and fold the tortilla pieces together to form a boat shape, sealing the edges gently.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The tortilla edges are pressed together to hold the layered filling.
Arrange the assembled tortilla boats on a baking sheet and bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is lightly crisp.
