The quesadilla is a culinary blank canvas. This simple and delicious Mexican classic loves to become
anything its maker desires. Fill with any kind of melting cheese and just about any filling
on the planet earth. Flour tortillas, corn tortillas, flavored tortillas...its all an interchangeable,
interweavable tangle of dripping cheese/meats/flavors...dress it up, dress it down, serve it early,
serve it late...take it and run...oh, and be sure to make extra.
