Variation on a theme

The making of a scrumptious tortilla is an art. I eat tortilla's on a regular basis, at restaurants and in my own kitchen, always looking for a variation on the same theme. But today as I was trying to decide what to have for lunch I had a brainwave- fresh and simple was what was missing from my traditional tortilla.

So I cut up some fresh tomatoes, grated some aged cheddar(and yes, it does taste better aged), tore some fresh spinach and layer by layer placed it on the tortilla in the already warmed frying pan. And then I lightly (but not too lightly) sprinkled thyme, salt and pepper over the melting cheese. Once it was grilled to perfection I sat out on the deck, in the warm and glorious sun, and devoured my delicious tortilla, now to be my favorite spring (and summer!) quick and easy meal.

I can only imagine what the addition of grilled chicken would do... num num num :)

bon appétit!
