Super Quick and yummy! Served with Lettuce, Tomato, onion, and Sour cream. I would also add in olives but I didn't have any in the house. It was really good. The family loved it. And since I only had a few minutes to get dinner on the table, this was perfect! Thanks!!

Simple easy recipe. I added some cheese on top of the quesadillas while they were in the pan, flipped the them for 30 seconds to melt the cheese - perfect. Served with salsa ans a dab of cottage cheese. Thanks Darrinw2001 they were very tasty quesadillas
