1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil |

8 flour tortillas (6-inch tortillas or 16 3-inch tortillas) |
1/2 lb soft brie cheese |
1/2 cup dried cranberries |
fresh ground black pepper |
cilantro leaf, for garnish |
Directions:
1. NOTE: You could also substitute corn tortillas for the wheat tortillas.
2. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
3. In skillet over medium heat, cook the onion in the olive oil for about 5 minutes or until soft and browned. Stir often.
4. Set onions aside in small bowl to cool.
