This was really tasty! We have a quesadilla maker, so I changed the instructions a little bit. I mixed the (cooked) potatoes with all the spices and dressing. I laid one tortilla down on our quesadilla maker, then put on the potato mixture, and sprinkled the cheese on top of that. I topped with another tortilla and then closed the maker till the tortillas were crispy and browned. I used about a tsp. of red pepper flakes, and it was still pretty spicy. Topped with salsa, these make a great little meal!
