Method

Quesadilla Directions

1

Prepare the Quesadillas

In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, place one tortilla in the skillet.

2

Add Cheese

Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup of Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the tortilla.

3

Top with Tortilla

Place another tortilla on top of the cheese. Press down gently.

4

Cook the Quesadilla

Cook until the bottom tortilla is golden brown and the cheese starts to melt, about 3-4 minutes.

5

Flip and Finish Cooking

Carefully flip the quesadilla using a spatula, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil if needed, and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.

6

Slice and Serve

Remove from skillet, let cool slightly, slice into wedges, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Fries Directions

7

Prepare the Fries

While the quesadillas are cooking, preheat your oven and cook the frozen french fries according to the package instructions.

8

Season the Fries

Once the fries are cooked, remove them from the oven and season with salt to taste.
