A little blue cheese and some buffalo chicken makes for an awesome quesadilla

It shouldn’t be all blue cheese though; you’d want to also include shreds of some mild melting cheese so the sides stick together properly.

I imagine goat cheese would also be good, but I just really like goat cheese.

Want to hear heresy?
Microwave it. It’s a different type - more chewy. But it takes 60 s

These are good. But if you’re going to do cheese only, consider doing a roll-up.

Either use sliced cheese, or hand shred the cheese. Pre-shredded cheese is coated (usually with starch or cellulose) to prevent it from clumping, but that also prevents the melted product from getting that nice, gooey, stretchy effect. Same goes for pizza.

Remember: quesadillas are just a different kind of grilled cheese sandwich. And that looks tasty, lemme try.

I love that you got it brown and crisp as I abhor soft/chewy quesadillas.

I like adding cilantro somewhere (either in fillings or in salsa). Sometimes I throw a little cheese in the pan and let it melt and cook onto the outside of the quesadilla which gives it a little different character. I also love getting chipotle flavor somewhere and usually use Cholula Chipotle sauce which I buy in 64oz bottles instead of the little 5oz bottles they sell in stores.

I make a lot of quesadillas!
