CLUB QUESADILLAS
A traditional club sandwich gets a fun change of pace when the bread is replaced with soft flour tortillas. It's easy to get the children to help assemble these. I serve salsa and corn chips on the side.-Victoria Hahn, Northampton, Pennsylvania

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The fresher and tastier your ingredients are, the better your quesadillas will be. Use fresh vegetables, quality cheese, and flavorful meat or protein.
- Don't overstuff the quesadillas: If you overload them with fillings, they will be difficult to fold and cook evenly. Aim for a thin layer of fillings so that the quesadillas are easy to handle and have a crispy exterior.
- Cook the quesadillas over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly and prevent the tortillas from burning. If the heat is too high, the tortillas will cook too quickly and the fillings will not have time to heat through.
- Serve the quesadillas with your favorite toppings: Some popular options include salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and pico de gallo. You can also add shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, or sliced avocado.
Conclusion:
Quesadillas are a delicious and versatile dish that can be made with a variety of ingredients. They are perfect for a quick and easy meal or snack, and they can also be served as an appetizer or side dish. With a little creativity, you can create endless variations of quesadillas that will please everyone at your table.
