Mexican Quesadillas—Flour or Corn Tortillas

Here's a quick and simple recipe which can be followed-up anytime you feel like a quick snack.

Ingredients

. One dozen flour or corn tortillas
.Monterey jack cheese with jalapeños or regular
.Salsa picante, medium or mild
.Guacamole sauce


Preparation

.Warm-up a medium to large size skillet and place a tad of vegetable oil on it
.Put a tortilla on the warm skillet and let it get warm by turning it over a few times
.Now put not-too-thick strips of jack cheese on one-half of the tortilla
.Let the cheese melt a little and fold the other side of the tortilla to make a half-moon
.Before you fold the tortilla over, you may want to put salsa on the cheese, it is up to you
.Turn the quesadilla over until it looks crispy, but not too much

*Repeat the process with more tortillas until you have enough to your liking. I have done this recipe with or without salsa, and either flour or corn tortillas. Keep the quesadillas in a warm platter, wrapped with aluminum foil until you're ready to serve.

When you serve them, have the guacamole sauce on a serving bowl placed on the table. You may also want to have a small bowl of salsa picante on the side to dip the quesadillas.

If you don't like hot salsa at all on the quesadillas, and you want to keep them with just cheese, go for a bottle of chilled white wine, but nothing too expensive. With salsa on the quesadilla, red wine is best, or go for ice-cold beer.
