This is so good! I love it, low fat, healthy and easy. I used green peppers, zucchini, onion, broccoli, carrot and mushrooms. When I added the soya sauce the arma was fantastic. I also used one tortilla, put the filling on the half and folded over. I used 30gr low fat cheddar and I also added some tabasco sauce. Spicy!!! This was my lunch at the office for the next day. Wordeful! Thanks for sharing!

This is a great recipe. I didnt use canola oil. Instead, I sprayed the tortilla with olive oil Pam type spray. Omitted onions and peppers and added spinach. I have to say, I think the spinach really made the recipe. I also cooked the mushrooms a bit in some sesame oil and cumin before adding to quesadilla. I used real cheese also. The whole wheat tortillas are a must have also. Overall very easy any yummy! Thanks!
