    Cheese Quesadillas

    Forbidden Foods Diabetic Cooking
    Yield: 8 servings (2 wedges)

    Ingredients:
    - 1 cup shredded Mexican Cheddar, Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack, or brick cheese
    - 1 green onion, minced
    - 1-3 tablespoons canned chopped green chilies (to taste)
    - 4 8-inch flour tortillas
    - Chunky salsa, for topping or dip

    Directions:
    In a medium bowl, toss together the cheese, green onion, and chilies; set aside.

    Spray a medium skillet with nonstick cooking spray and place over medium heat.

    When hot, add 1 tortilla and sprinkle it with one-fourth of the cheese mixture.

    When the cheese begins to melt, about 1 minute, fold the tortilla in half.

    Continue cooking until lightly browned and crisp on both sides, about 1 minute. Transfer to a cutting board.
    Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

    Cut into 4 wedges with a knife or pizza cutter and serve immediately with the salsa.
