Since salmon with capers & quesadillas with boursin are two of my favorite things...I knew I would like this. The dill sauce would be great with a squeeze of fresh lemon. The accompaniments aren't really necessary since it's hard to figure out how to eat them in this - a little red onion chopped up inside the quesadilla might work better. Overall a great idea and delicious lunch!
