How to make Quesadillas
For the following Mexican food recipe, I use Mexican cheese and if you do not have access to it, please substitute Mexican-style cheese, Monterrey Jack or Co-Jack cheese.
CHEESE QUESADILLAS
10 large homemade flour tortillas
2-1/2 cups queso fresco or blanco Mexican cheese
3 ounce can green chilies (optional)
butter
Sprinkle 1/4 cup of cheese on half of the tortilla and then 1 tablespoon of green chilies. Sprinkle a little more cheese on top so the chilies do not fall out.
Fold it in half and butter the tortilla. Place in a non-stick skillet and brown on both sides like you would a grilled cheese. Make sure the cheese is melted. Cut in half and serve with pico de gallo, sour cream and guacamole.
