Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. 

Wrap the tortillas in a paper towel then microwave for 30 seconds to soften the tortillas. 

 Place the corn tortillas over the baking rack then spray each tortilla with cooking spray; bake for 7-10 minutes or until golden brown. If you don't have a baking rack, fry the tortillas in oil and form into tacos.
