Mini Tortillas with Ricotta Cheese and Grilled Peaches

When I was a little girl I used to love to watch my grandma cook — I especially loved watching her make homemade flour tortillas everyday. If there were ever any tortillas leftover after dinner, my grandma and I would slather a warm tortilla with requesón (ricotta cheese) and drizzle it with miel pura (honey) for dessert. It might sound a little odd, but actually it is so decadent. While shopping at Sprouts and seeing all the tempting peaches, this lovely memory came back to me and I had to recreate it with a modern twist.

This dish has to be the easiest recipe to make. It’s simple to prepare and not to mention fancy when garnished with a cute toothpick. To make this recipe even easier, purchase store bought flour tortillas and use a round cookie cutter for a cute presentation.

My grandma never added fruit to this treat, but I decided to add grilled peaches. I love the flavor of grilled peaches — the grill softens the peaches and magnifies the sweetness and juiciness while adding a smoky flavor. I have a feeling grandma would approve.

The combination of grilled peaches, ricotta cheese, and honey all wrapped up in a warm flour tortilla is heavenly. This is a great appetizer or dessert for a spring evening.
