Melt bacon grease in a cast iron or regular skillet over medium heat. Place tortillas side by side into the skillet. Top each tortilla with one Manchego cheese slice and three zucchini blossoms. Fold tortillas in half.

Cook until tortillas are lightly browned and cheese starts to melt, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and cook until the other side is crispy, lightly browned, and the cheese has melted, 1 more minute.
