Sprinkle with 1/3 of the shredded cheese. 2nd layer (Middle): Place another layer of tortilla halves evenly over the cheese. Place 1/2 of the remaining meat mixture over the tortillas. Sprinkle 1/2 of the green onions & chopped cilantro on top of the meat mixture. Sprinkle with 1/2 of the remaining shredded cheese.
