How to Make Basil Cheese Wedges

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly grease with cooking spray.
  2. Lay one large flour tortilla on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Spread 2 tablespoons of softened cream cheese evenly over the tortilla.
  4. Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese over the cream cheese. Top with 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves.
  5. Carefully place a second large flour tortilla on top.
  6. Lightly brush the top tortilla with 1 tablespoon of your favorite Italian dressing. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
  7. Bake for 8-9 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Cut into 8 wedges and serve immediately.
