Instructions

  • Tips

    • For heartier quesadillas, you can add chopped cooked chicken, cooked black beans or refried beans.

  • Step 1

    Top half of each tortilla with 1/4 cup cheese, 2 teaspoons green onions and 1 tablespoon Pace® Picante Sauce.  Brush the edges of the tortillas with water.  Fold the tortillas over the filling and press to seal.

  • Step 2

    Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat.  Add the quesadillas and cook in batches until lightly browned on both sides and the cheese is melted.  Serve with the remaining Pace® Picante Sauce.
