Place 1/4 cup shrimp mixture off center on each tortilla; top with 1 tablespoon cheese. Roll up and place in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish, seam side down. Top with sauce; sprinkle with remaining cheese.

Bake, uncovered, until heated through and cheese is melted, 25-30 minutes. If desired, sprinkle with cilantro.
