What's Great About It:
A quesadilla is a quick and easy meal to prepare and is made of items you’re likely to already have in your fridge or pantry! Freshen it up with some tomato salsa to serve on top, or by serving with a crisp side salad. You can prepare this ahead of time and simply toast in a sandwich press when ready to eat!
