Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced bell pepper and red onion, and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the corn kernels, salt, and black pepper, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

  2. 2

    Assemble Quesadillas

    Place a tortilla in the skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese on one half of the tortilla, followed by a portion of the sautéed vegetable mixture. Top with the remaining cheese and fold the tortilla over.

  3. 3

    Cook Quesadilla

    Cook the quesadilla for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden brown. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Cut the quesadillas into wedges and garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
