Snacks In No Time: Easy Cheesy Quesadillas

On super hot days, or days when you are exhausted, this is an easy recipe and a great alternative to fast food.


Ingredients:

• 2 flour tortillas
  
• 1/2 cup shredded cheese (Mild Cheddar, Colby-Jack, or American)

Instructions: Heat large frying pan to hot.  Turn off the heat and lay a flour tortilla in pan spread cheese in a thin layer over tortilla then top with second tortilla.  Cover with lid and in 4 minutes flip over.  Let set another 3 minutes and remove from pan to a plate.  Slice with a pizza cutter into 8 equal pieces.  Serve with sour cream and salsa. Tips:

1. Add any leftover sliced cooked meats (chicken, beef, or pork)
   
2. Add sliced onions, or green onions.
   
3. Since Cheese Quesadillas are somewhat of a simple bland snack/light meal.  We spice things up in our sour cream.   1/4 c. Sour Cream; 1/2 tsp. Garlic Powder; 1/4-1/2 tsp. Cumin; 2 Tbsp. Parsley, then mix.  Yummy!

* I understand my recipes are incredibly easy and sometimes even self explanatory, but my kids are able to make them by themselves with little to no help.  These are to help them feel confident in the kitchen.
