Number Of Ingredients 7

2 c (8 oz) shredded cheddar cheese
1 can (4 oz) diced green chiles
1/2 c whole kernel corn
1/4 c (about 2) sliced green onions
10 (6-in) fajita-size flour tortillas
salsa (optional)
chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine cheese, chiles, corn and green onion in medium bowl. Spread 1/3 c cheese mixture onto one half of each tortillas; fold in half. Spray large griddle with cooking spray; place two quesadillas in pan. Cook each side over medium-high heat until golden brown and cheese is melted. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Cut each into halves or thirds. Serve with salsa and cilantro.

Tips:

- Choose the right cheese: For the best melting and flavor, use a combination of sharp cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese. - Use fresh tortillas: Fresh tortillas will fold and cook better than store-bought tortillas. - Warm the tortillas before filling them: This will make them more pliable and less likely to crack. - Don't overfill the quesadillas: Too much filling will make the quesadillas difficult to fold and cook evenly. - Cook the quesadillas over medium heat: This will help to prevent the tortillas from burning. - Flip the quesadillas frequently: This will ensure that they cook evenly on both sides. - Serve the quesadillas with your favorite toppings: Some popular options include salsa, sour cream, guacamole, and pico de gallo.

Green chile quesadillas are a delicious and easy-to-make Mexican dish. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
