3 cups julienned zucchini ( matchstick size)
1/3 cup chopped onions
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/3 cup salsa ( mild, medium or hot…up to you)
2 tablespoons water
3/4 cup sliced almonds ( reserve 3 tbsp for garnish)
1 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese

Spoon 1/2 cup vegetable mixture down center of each tortilla.
Divide cheese into sixths and sprinkle on top of vegetable mixture.
Roll up tortillas (fold one end in towards vegetable/cheese mixture, then roll).
