Roll each piece into a dough ball and let rest for 15 or more minutes.

Grate ¼ cup of cheese and plate it next to the avocado.

Add salsa to the plate with avocado and cheese.

Cut open a large freezer bag and place a dough ball between the layers.

Press with a flat surface to form a round tortilla, rolling to 2mm thickness.

Flip the tortilla just before it starts to bubble and brown the other side.

12

Add butter to a pan over medium-low heat and crack in 2 eggs, removing the shells.
