Easy Quesadillas

Tonight for supper I'm trying a new recipe!! I thought I woud share I with you, I found this on another blog and its sounds real easy!

Easy Quesadillas
10 flour tortillas
non-stick cooking spray
3 oz cream cheese, softened
1 Tablespoon taco seasoning
filling: beans, chicken, beef, etc...about 2 cups
2 cups shredded cheese (your choice)


Heat skillet over medium low heat. In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese and taco seasoning together until well combined; set aside.

Remove two (2) flour tortillas from bag and spray one side of one tortilla with non-stick cooking spray (if you don't have this, use butter or olive oil, your choice), place the 2nd tortilla on top.

Using the back of a spoon, spread about 1 Tablespoon of cream cheese mixture over the tortilla. Spread thin layer of cooked beans or meat over the cream cheese layer. Sprinkle a couple of tablespoons of shredded cheese over the bean/meat layer.

Separate the tortilla from the oily one beneath it and place it into the heated skillet. Place the oily tortilla over the cheese layer, oily side out. After about 1-2 minutes, carefully flip the tortilla so the other side can brown. Remove the quesadilla from the skillet to rest and so the cheese can finish melting.

Continue making quesadillas. Cut them into quarters or sixths. Serve with guacamole, salsa and sour cream.
