Time 5m

Yield 4 quesadillas, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

8 (6 inch) flour tortillas
1 cup monterey jack and cheddar cheese blend, shredded

Steps:

  • Preheat grill or grill pan to medium.
  • Place half of the tortillas on the grill, and drop a quarter-cup of cheese in the center of each. Spread cheese as close to edges as possible.* Place a second tortilla on top of each.
  • Grill until bottom tortilla is lightly browned and cheese begins to melt, about 1-2 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until browned on the other side.
  • Cut into quarters and serve with salsa, sour cream, and guacamole.
  • *Optional: Add grilled chicken or shrimp and/or sauteed onions and peppers at this step. Both will add flavor and texture, although the recipe is complete without them.
