Here’s a simple recipe for Veggie Quesadillas serving four:

Ingredients:

• 8 medium flour tortillas
• 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a mix)
• 2 cups assorted vegetables (bell peppers, onions, zucchini, mushrooms, etc.), sliced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Optional toppings: salsa, guacamole, sour cream, chopped cilantro

Instructions:

1. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced vegetables and sauté for 5-7 minutes until they’re tender-crisp. Season with cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
2. Place a tortilla on a clean surface. Sprinkle a handful of shredded cheese evenly over one half of the tortilla.
3. Spoon some of the sautéed vegetables over the cheese layer.
4. Top the vegetables with another layer of cheese.
5. Fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling, creating a half-moon shape.
6. Repeat the process for the remaining tortillas and filling.
7. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the quesadillas onto the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they’re golden brown and the cheese melts.
8. Once cooked, remove the quesadillas from the skillet and let them cool for a minute.
9. Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve with optional toppings like salsa, guacamole, sour cream, or chopped cilantro.

Serving Suggestions:
