QUICK SPECIAL QUESADILLA
I'm from the Imperial Valley which is pretty much home for the Special Quesadilla. Normally these can take a decent amount of time to prepare but this way is much simpler. Can be made as main course entree with beans and rice as sides or cut up for appetizers served with guacamole and salsa. The recipe is for 1 special quesadilla but I will usually make an entire package (12 tortillas) and that will be good for 6 servings depending on how hungry everyone is.

Steps:
- Prepare an egg wash by mixing 1 egg with 2 tablespoons of water. Set aside.
- Take 1 uncooked tortilla and add approximately 1/4 cup of the shredded cheese (more if you want it to be cheesier).
- Fold tortilla in half.
- Apply egg wash to the inside edge of the quesadilla.
- Use your thumb to squeeze the quesadilla shut along the edges.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. The oil should be approximately 1/2 inch deep in the skillet.
- Once the oil is hot carefully place the quesadilla into the oil. It should begin to lightly bubble as soon as it's place inside the oil. If it doesn't, the oil probably isn't hot enough.
- After 20-30 seconds flip the quesadilla over. The cooked side should be a golden brown.
- After 20-30 seconds remove the quesadilla and place on a plate with 2-3 paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
- Serve hot.
- Can be cut into halves or quarters if serving as appetizers.

QUICK SNACK CHEESE AND JALAPENO QUESADILLA
It always makes me laugh when I hear people saying Jalapeño with 'J' and not a 'H' sound. It reminds me of days gone by when I used to say it! Whatever the case these are just gorgeous, the heat of the Jalapeno cooled by the cheese against the foil of the crisp tortilla is just perfect

Steps:
- Warm tortillas in the microwave according to the packet instructions, so that they are more bendable and won't break when you fold them.
- Mix the slicked shallot, chopped plum tomatoes, chopped chilli and parsley leaves in a bowl.
- Lay out the thin ham slices on one half of the tortilla, add the mixture of shallots, tomatoes and chilli. Generously sprinkle with the grated cheddar cheese.
- Fold the tortillas in half. Press down to seal.
- Heat up a griddle pan. Lightly brush the folded tortillas with a little bit of olive oil and place them one by one on the pan. Cook for a couple of minutes until crisp and golden, brush the uncooked side with oil, then flip over for another few minutes.
- Cut each tortilla into three triangles, pile up on a plate and serve with tomato salsa, guacamole or vegetable salad.
