Cheese and Bacon Triangles

6 (8-inch) flour tortillas
12 slices American cheese
1/2 cup cooked bacon bits
Optional topping: salsa

1. Cut tortillas in half to form 12 half circles. Place one slice of cheese over each tortilla half, tearing to leave a 1/4-inch border around edges. Top cheese with bacon bits. Brush a small amount of water around the edges of the tortilla. Fold in half forming a triangle. Press the watered edges of tortilla together to seal. Cook immediately using one of the following methods or cover and refrigerate up to three days. If desired, serve with salsa.
2. Microwave directions: Place one triangle on a microwave-safe plate. Cook on high power in a microwave oven 16 to 20 seconds or until hot and cheese is melted. Let stand one minute before serving.
3. Oven directions: Preheat oven to 350° F. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes or until hot and cheese is melted. Let stand one minute before serving.
4. Skillet directions: Cook triangles in a small amount of butter in a skillet over medium heat until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Let stand one minute before serving.

Makes 6 servings.
