A
Quesadilla is a flour tortilla or a
corn tortilla with savory mixture containing cheese and/or vegetables and other
ingredients. Quesadilla are fast, crispy, gooey and has an ultimate flavor.
This
popular food was first introduced in the Mexican culture. The stuffing that
constitutes a quesadilla varies from region to region, between U.S and Mexico
and is not universally agreed upon. But there are certain similarities between
the different versions that people generally agree upon, namely that the
quesadilla is cooked after being filled or stuffed. A Quesadilla is a toasted
tortilla with melted cheese inside as “Queso” is cheese in Spanish.

easy and you can make it ahead of time. I have shared the recipe of tortillas
