1
Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all the ingredients. If using, slice the jalapeños, chop the onions and bell peppers.
2
Heat the Pan
Place a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

3
Assemble the Quesadilla
Place one tortilla in the skillet. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and 0.5 cup of mozzarella cheese evenly over the tortilla. Add any optional ingredients (jalapeños, onions, bell peppers) if desired.
4
Add the Second Tortilla
Top with another tortilla and press down gently.
5
Cook the Quesadilla
Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom tortilla is golden brown. Carefully flip the quesadilla using a spatula and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil if needed, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
6
Slice and Serve
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it sit for a minute. Slice into wedges and serve with sour cream and salsa on the side.
