Notes

-If your tortilla is just taken out of refrigerator, heat the frying pan at high heat and toss the tortilla in the pan for 10-15 seconds on both sides. Put away the tortilla and cover it with another plate.
-You can replace the beef with chicken. 
-You can replace the seasonings with your favorite ones. 
-Make sure to bake the side where the roll is "closed" so that it would be hardened and won't pop open when you bake the other sides.
