1 medium eggplant, cut lengthwise in 1/4-inch thick slices
1 medium zucchini, cut lengthwise in 1/4-inch thick slices
1 medium sweet red bell pepper, cut into wedges
1 bunch (6) scallions
1/3 cup Southwestern Butter Baste
8 (6-inch) flour tortillas
8 small lettuce leaves
2 cups shredded Monterey jack with hot peppers

Lightly brush rack of outdoor grill or broiler pan with vegetable oil. Preheat grill or broiler. Place batches of vegetables on rack 3 to 4 inches from heat; cook until nearly crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Turn and brush with Southwestern Butter Baste. Cook until crisp-tender, and place on a large cutting board; repeat with remaining vegetables. Slice vegetables into bite-size pieces; place in a serving bowl. Drizzle with any remaining Southwestern Butter Baste; toss to coat.

For each serving: Heat flour tortillas according to package directions. Place two tortillas on an individual serving plate; top each with one lettuce leaf. Place 3/4 cup vegetables and 1/4 cup Monterey jack cheese down the center of each tortilla. Fold flour tortillas toward center; repeat. Makes 4 servings.
