- Heat Pan: Preheat a skillet or pan over medium heat, ensuring it is hot enough to crisp the tortilla without burning.

Notes
- You can substitute cheddar with other cheeses like monterey jack or mozzarella for a different flavor.
- Use whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas to modify the recipe to dietary needs.
- Add a splash of hot sauce or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor when serving.
- For added crunch, consider adding shredded lettuce or sliced cucumbers inside the wrap before rolling.
