GETTING READY

4. Slice bananas and evenly distribute onto tortillas.
5. Add sliced strawberries----to address spatial concepts, place them ON TOP OF, NEXT TO, UNDER and BETWEEN the bananas.
6. To make the carmel-like topping combine 3 Tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 2 Tablespoons room temperature unsalted butter. Blend well.
7. Evenly distribute the mixture over the tortillas.
8. Bake at 350 for approx 10 minutes. Edges of tortilla will begin to brown slightly.
