Quesadillas

For a very long time, I have cooked for 6 people...plus a few more.  It has been difficult for me to scale it back to just 2...so I still make too much.  I plan on it most weeks...eating leftovers in some way...or making the leftovers into something else...even showing up at my neighbors...bringing a plate of something.  They don't seem to mind. 

Well...I still have some salsa!! and some random veggies.  So I made very fast and easy....


Quesadillas

Tortillas - any kind you like - 1 or 2  per person
Some cheese - monterrey or pepper jack  - any kind you like
Something to put inside - veggies, chicken - anything you like
You can saute' your veggies until softened a little or put them in the microwave for 2-3 minutes.

Drizzle some oil - about 1/4 tsp - in a skillet and heat.  Place tortilla in pan and sprinkle cheese on whole tortilla.  Spread your inside stuff on just half.  Check tortilla for when it starts to crisp on the bottom.


Then fold empty half over and press down a little to stick the cheese.
Flip over until both sides are crisp and cheese is melted.  Cut in wedges and serve...with whatever you like! :-)
You can do these in the oven or even in tin foil on the grill...but this is the easiest.  The kids love them with just cheese of course!
