Method

Preparation of Vegetables

  1. 1

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, bell peppers, zucchini, and mushrooms. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Remove from heat and set aside.

Assembling the Quesadilla

  1. 2

    Fill the Tortilla

    Place one flour tortilla in the skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded cheese on one half of the tortilla. Layer with sautéed vegetables, then top with another 1/2 cup of cheese. Fold the tortilla over to cover the filling.

Cooking the Quesadilla

  1. 3

    Cook the Quesadilla

    Cook the quesadilla for 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown and the cheese is melted. Carefully flip and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes.

  2. 4

    Repeat

    Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and filling, adding more olive oil to the skillet if needed.

Making the Salsa

  1. 5

    Prepare the Salsa

    In a bowl, combine the diced tomato, finely chopped onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and salt to taste. Mix well and set aside.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve the Quesadilla

    Cut the cooked quesadillas into wedges and serve warm with the prepared salsa on the side.
