Best Answer

(Except when there is no further cooking.)

    Answer 2

    Many casseroles and dishes use rolled up tortillas containing meat and cheese, placed in a pan, and baked in the oven. You should be able to do the same but I would be sure to pre-heat the shells just as you would with any tortilla wrapped serving.
