  3. Heat a large grill surface over medium heat. Heat the tortillas, one at a time, in batches until soft and pliable, about 1 minute per side. Spoon 1/4 cup of the warm bean filling into the center of each tortilla, spreading out to the edges. Top with 2-3 heaping tablespoons of the cauliflower mixture and 2 tablespoons of cheese.
