    Quesadillas

    Recipe Introduction


    This super-simple snack is even faster if you have a pancake griddle; simply preheat, spray with nonstick cooking spray, and prepare all the quesadillas at once. Trim the fat even further by replacing traditional cheeses with a reduced-fat jack cheese spiked with pepper.

    List of Ingredients




    Quesadillas


    Shredded Mexican Chihuahua, Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack, or brick cheese 1 cup ---
    green onion, finely chopped 1 ea ---
    canned chopped green chilies 2 Tbsp ---
    8-inch flour tortillas 4 ea ---
    jar of chunky salsa, for topping or dip 1 ea ---

    Recipe





    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.
