Cheese Quesadillas



I made quesadillas for the first time tonight. So easy! So quick! So cheap! Even with just cheese, the quesadillas were filling, but I think adding shrimp would make it a more substantial meal. I should have been making these years ago, goodness! I think I just had my tortilla awakening (cue the choir of angels).

I'd like to try some non-traditional tortilla combos like Nutella or peanut butter and bananas. I know breakfast burritos are a no-brainer, but I am not a huge fan, although I do have them once in a while. Seriously, though, the tortilla possibilities are endless. So exhilarating, no?

I too love the simplicity of cheese quesadillas. I am glad that you are experimenting with them!

Passionate Eater, I can't tell you how satisfying it was for me to make dinner, clean up and be in bed watching TV in less than 30 min! Quesadillas are the answer!

Mmmm, love quesadillas! I dont know if youre a Costco or Sams Club shopper, but they have these raw tortillas in the refrigerator sections that you just cook in a pan and they taste like freshly made tortillas!! YUM!

KP, I don't (yet) have a Costco or Sam's Club membership, but eagerly await the day if and when I can buy bulk size containers of Sour Patch Kids and ketchup! :P I have to say, I really like tortillas warmed up in a pan as opposed to steamed because of the slight, toasty texture and bite they get.
