Cook the Quesadilla
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Carefully fold each tortilla in half over the filling. Place one or two quesadillas in the skillet at a time, cooking for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
