※ Quesadilla Recipe

"Queso" is cheese in Spanish.
A quesadilla is a toasted tortilla with melted cheese inside.
My favorites are beef, cheese, baby spinach, hot sauce and onions.
I had some vegetarian friends over for lunch on Sunday & I made an array of fillings.

What you need:
Large flour tortillas

Oilve oil

Suggested fillings

Slow roasted caramelized pumpkin
Slow roasted capsicum; red and green
Caramelized onions
Guacamole
Sour cream
Home Made Sriracha
Slow cooked beef with home made seasoning **
Sliced mushrooms
Green onions
Black olives, sliced
Fresh tomatoes, diced
Chicken pieces
Avocado
Grated cheese
Refried beans

We grilled ours on our George Foreman grill, if you don't have an indoor grill, a fry pan will work just fine. Simply place all desired ingredients on an oiled tortilla (oil on grill side down) grill the tortillas on the grill until the cheese is melted and they are lightly browned.
