CHEESE QUESIDILLAS (with SNOWFLAKE VARIATION)



Ingredients:
2 Flour Tortillas (I use the ones that look like pie crusts, then I cook them in a skillet)
Grated Cheese (your favorite)  I use cheddar, mozzarella and Monterey Jack

Directions:
If you have the pie crust like tortillas, cook your tortillas, turning when the bubbles appear.  Cook in a sauteusse pan until the tortilla is no longer doughy.

Sprinkle grated cheese on one side of a tortilla.  Cover the cheese with the other tortilla.  Cook in a medium high skillet a few minutes on each side until the cheese is melted (I like to press down on the tortilla while the quesadilla is cooking).  Using Kitchen shears or a sharp pizza wheel, cut the quesadilla into wedges.  Serve and enjoy.

Variation:  Make snowflake quesadillas by folding on and cutting little shapes out of the tortilla at the seems (just like you would make a paper snowflake).  Use an uncut tortilla as the bottom of your quesadilla, sprinkle with cheese and place the “snowflake” on top.  Cook as usual.  Serve and enjoy.  (originally found on Pinterest, from a Martha Steward website)
