Quesadillas

Ingredients:

- 2 large flour tortillas

- 1 cup shredded cheese (Cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)

- 1/2 cup cooked chicken, beef, or vegetables (optional)

- 1 tablespoon butter or oil

- Salsa, sour cream, and guacamole for serving

 Instructions:

1. **Preparation**:

   - If using cooked chicken, beef, or vegetables, have them ready and cut into small pieces.

2. **Heat the Pan**:

   - Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.

3. **Assemble the Quesadilla**:

   - Place one tortilla in the skillet.

   - Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese evenly over the tortilla.

   - If using, add the cooked meat or vegetables on top of the cheese.

   - Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the meat or vegetables.

   - Place the second tortilla on top.

4. **Cook the Quesadilla**:

   - Let the quesadilla cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and the cheese starts to melt.

   - Carefully flip the quesadilla with a spatula. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.

5. **Serve**:

   - Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it rest for a minute.

   - Cut it into wedges using a pizza cutter or a sharp knife.

   - Serve with salsa, sour cream, and guacamole on the side.

 Tips:

- For added flavor, you can include ingredients like chopped onions, bell peppers, jalapeños, or fresh herbs.

- To make a healthier version, use whole wheat tortillas and add more vegetables.
