Ingredients:

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese blend)
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables, diced (such as bell peppers, tomatoes, onions, spinach)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Optional Garnishes:

  • Sour cream
  • Salsa
  • Guacamole

Instructions:

Prepare the Vegetables:

    • Heat olive oil or melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced vegetables and sauté for 3-5 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.

    Assemble the Quesadillas:

      • Place a flour tortilla on a clean surface. Sprinkle a quarter of the shredded cheese evenly over half of the tortilla.
      • Spoon a quarter of the sautéed vegetables over the cheese.
      • Sprinkle another quarter of the cheese over the vegetables.
      • Fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling, pressing down gently.

      Cook the Quesadillas:

        • Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the assembled quesadilla in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.
        • Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling ingredients.

        Serve and Enjoy:

          • Remove the quesadillas from the skillet and cut each one into wedges or halves.
          • Serve hot, garnished with sour cream, salsa, or guacamole on the side for dipping.

          Optional Tips:

            • Customize the quesadillas by adding cooked chicken, beans, or different types of cheese to suit your taste.
            • For a crispier texture, brush the outside of the tortillas with a little olive oil or butter before cooking.
