Quesadilla Quesadilla
A quesadilla or sometimes specifically a cheese quesadilla, is a Mexican dish and type of taco, consisting of a tortilla that is filled primarily with cheese, and sometimes meats, beans, vegetables, and spices, and then cooked on a griddle. Traditionally, a corn tortilla is used, but it can also be made with a flour tortilla, particularly in northern Mexico and the United States.A full quesadilla is made with two tortillas that hold a layer of cheese between them. A half is a single tortilla that has been filled with cheese and folded into a half-moon shape. A quick version of the quesadilla, the cheese tortilla, is microwaved and often served to children.

Stuffed Quesadilla Stuffed Quesadilla
This is a recipe inspired by needing to empty out the fridge. In hindsight, mushrooms would have probably been great in this, leftover corn, tomato, black beans, or any sort of meat you have leftover.. It's a great basic recipe.Also, I'm usually only cooking for myself, but this recipe cooks up nicely for many more people. I had tons of sauce leftover and with a little more vegetables and tortilla shells, this can easily be made for more people. Jenny -
