Quesadilla is a preparation made from tortilla, either corn or sometimes even wheat. With high resemblance with the Indian roti (flat bread), one can easily recreate this dish in a matter of minutes. The most popular form of quesadilla is the one with the cheese filling but you can always opt for the filling of your choice giving it a healthier twist. Try this cheese quesadilla recipe which can be devoured as snacks or even main course. Lay the tortillas flat on a plate and sprinkle the cheese of your choice on one half of the tortilla. You can also stuff if with more than one type of cheese. But try not to over fill the tortilla bread. Fold the tortillas in half over the cheese to make a half-moon. Take a knob of butter in a pan and warm it through till it melts and add the tortilla to the pan and cook until it is lightly brown, about 2 minutes. When one side turns golden brown turn the tortilla over and cook the other side. Once done cut it into smaller pieces and serve with the dip of your choice. It is best accompanied with the Mexican classics like salsa and guacamole. If you choose for a healthier option then try the vegetable quesadilla recipe.
