We love quesadillas around our house. They’re such a fun alternative to a sandwich. Somehow, placing cheese and whatever else you can dream of between two flour tortillas just seems a little more exciting.
A quesadilla is simply a flour or corn tortilla filled with cheese and other savory ingredients and either folded over or cut into triangles.
Why This Recipe Works
- Spinach and brie go so well together! When the brie is heated, it melts so easily and tastes wonderful.
