These quesadillas are a great meal prep option. I made a batch on Sunday and had them for lunch all week.

I made these quesadillas in a skillet instead of a griddle. They turned out just as well.

I'm not a fan of poblano peppers, so I used bell peppers instead. The quesadillas were still very flavorful.

These quesadillas were a great way to use up leftover corn. I also added some shredded chicken for a heartier meal.

I made these quesadillas with whole wheat tortillas and they were still delicious. I also added some black beans for extra protein.

These quesadillas were a hit with my family! The corn and poblano peppers gave them a delicious flavor, and the cheese melted perfectly. I will definitely be making these again.
