A classic twist on the traditional cheese quesadillas. Chicken quesadillas are very popular in Mexico City and the surrounding areas, and are a typical Mexican snack.

In addition to chicken quesadillas, I'll also share recipes for other popular varieties (beef, picadillo, mushrooms, huitlacoche, squash blossom, tripe...).

España y México

No soy Eva Longoria, pero aqui estoy. Estoy casada, he vivido en España, Chile y otros países de América Latina debido al trabajo de mi marido (en una gran cadena hotelera). Ahora estoy nuevamente en España tras dos años en Puebla con mi madre, y un año en Mexico DF. Estudié Derecho en la UNAM, pero no lo terminé..Terminé los estudios de turismo España, pero no trabajo. Llevo varios meses en Mis recetas y me ha encantado. Modestamente me gustaría que entre todos los mexicanos promoviéramos un mejor conocimiento de la cocina mexicana en el mundo, especialmente en Europa.
