These are great - love the twist! And the flavor was awesome. I used a 4 cheese blend. Thanks for sharing!

I didn't cut these up. Used them as lunch. I also fried them in some margarine, instead of dry. They turned out good. I think these would be even better with some kind of Mexican cheese to add a different flavor.

Caroline,One word describes this quesadilla. DELICIOUS!!! I use bacon in my breakfast quesadillas,but never thought to use it in a lunch quesadilla.I also used some of my husbads home canned Salsa,YUM I think the sour cream and salsa really add to this recipe. Thanks so much,Darlene
