A quesadilla is a flour tortilla or a corn

mixture containing cheese, other ingredients, and/or vegetables, (often) then
folded in half to form a half-moon shape. This
dish originated in Mexico, and
the name is derived from tortilla and the Spanish word for cheese Queso.

In this recipe we are just prepare homemade tortillas with combination

the preparing tortilla, filled with saute or cooked veggies and cheese and
cover as sandwiched between two tortillas, then cut into wedges to serve with
any Mexican dip. Even you can add corn
