Tips:

  • Use a variety of cheeses: Gouda, cheddar, pepper jack, and mozzarella are all great choices for quesadillas. You can also use a combination of cheeses to create a unique flavor.
  • Don't overstuff the quesadillas: Too much filling will make them difficult to fold and cook evenly.
  • Cook the quesadillas over medium heat: This will help to prevent the tortillas from burning.
  • Serve the quesadillas immediately: They are best when they are hot and crispy.
