Steps:

  • Immediately sprinkle the cheese on top of the tortilla in the pan, then top with the previously fried tortilla, browned side up.

  • Remove it from the pan and cut in wedges like a pizza.
  • Top with sour cream and/or salsa.
  • Enjoy!

THE " SHUT UP, SANDI " QUESADILLA / QUESADILLAS



The

I've been in major whine mode lately and this little gem was my husband's clever method of putting something besides complaints in my mouth. It was a roaring (so to speak) success! Or at least temporarily. It uses the lovely Dutch aged gouda cheese, something this puppy depends on. Not smoked and not the stuff you buy at most markets, but the genuine, aged a minimum of 1 year, article. Measurements are approximate. By the way, did you know that the Dutch pronounce gouda as "HOW-duh"? I almost titled this recipe "Gouda You Do", but I didn't want tomatoes thrown at me. (!)
