Cover and grill for 1 to 2 minutes or until lightly toasted on one side. Turn tortillas over and spread the vegetable mixture over the toasted sides of tortillas. Sprinkle with shredded cheese.

3. Cover and grill for 2 to 3 minutes more or until tortillas are lightly toasted, vegetables are just heated, and cheese begins to melt. Carefully remove from grill. To serve, cut into quarters. Makes 8 servings.

To Denise: If you prep all the ingredients ahead of time and mix the veggies with the mayo and pesto and keep it in the fridge overnight, you can make it for company easily. Just bring the veggies to room temp. first.

Not terribly convenient to make if you have company, but it's to-die-for good! Must try it.
