  1. What a great tasting Quesadillas! The recipe is a bit confusing with the amount of tortillas and the stacking. I did what Pamela did and stacked 3 tortillas. I only made one and cut it in half. I made mine with the following: I used whole wheat tortiallas, chicken breast, green onions, red peppers, mexi cheese and cilantro (I love that stuff). I removed the foil the last 5 minutes of cooking to toast and crisp it. It was great for a late evening dinner that did not stuff you. I will be making this again. Thanks, Lori Alcorn for posting.
     
  2. This was a yummy Sunday lunch. DH was wanting quesadillas and I had everything in the house to whip this up. I used 6 tortillas so each "stack" had 3 tortillas each. I did not cover with foil and it still browned nicely. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

I live in Winnipeg, married going on 7 years now, and working on making a menu for us with more variety but that is also simple to make after working a 8+ hr day.
