Steps:
- Lay out 3 tortillas on a cutting board. Combine the cheddar and Monterey Jack in a small bowl. Spread a third of the cheese on each tortilla, leaving a 1-inch edge. Place the remaining 3 tortillas on top.
- Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in a 12-inch omelet pan set over medium heat, and add one filled tortilla. Cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip with a spatula, and add another 1/2 tablespoon butter. Cook until browned and cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
- Cut cooked tortillas into eighths; serve immediately with salsa, if desired.

Super satisfying and ready in less than 10 minutes, it's no wonder quesadillas are a mealtime favorite. In Mexico they're typically made with Oaxaca cheese, however Cheddar, jack or colby provide an impressive melt too! Enjoy with homemade salsa and avocado.

Steps:
- Lay 6 tortillas on a work surface. Divide the cheese among the tortillas. (Its best to leave about an inch border on the edge of the tortilla uncovered to allow for the spread of the melting cheese.) Top with remaining tortillas and press gently to seal. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small skillet. Carefully place a quesadilla in the skillet and fry, turning once, until golden and little bubbles appear on both sides, about 4 to 5 minutes total. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas, wiping out the pan between batches if the butter burns, and adding more butter, as needed.
- While the quesadillas cook make the salsa: Halve the tomatoes and grate them on the largest holes of a box grater into a bowl, discarding the skins. Grate the onion into the tomato, and stir in the cilantro, hot sauce, and salt, to taste.
- Cut each quesadilla into 4 wedges with a pizza wheel or knife and serve with the salsa and avocado.

Steps:
- Brush 4 tortillas lightly on one side with the oil. Place 4 tortillas on the grill oiled side down. Top with cheese to taste and another tortilla on each. Turn quesadillas when bottoms are browned and cheese begins to melt. Brown on the other side. Serve hot.

Three ingredients are all you need for Luke Walker's Mexican twist on grilled cheese. The Unionville, Ontario teenager says the tasty wedges are ideal as an after-school snack or with soup at lunchtime. Youngsters can easily assemble the quick quesadillas but should get an adult's help popping them under the broiler.

CHEESE QUESADILLA
These are so easy and taste so good. I learned this recipe when I worked in food service in college. We had to make 1000's of them so I got really good at it. I am not exaggerating when I tell you there are NEVER leftovers. You can even prepare them ahead of time and cook when you are ready.

Steps:
- Sprinkle approx 1/4 cup of cheese (I just sprinkle on as much as I want so this is a guess)on half the tortilla.
- Sprinkle approx a Tbls of Chilies ontop of cheese (usually sprinkle a little more cheese on top of chilies to make it stay together better).
- Fold the tortilla in half and butter it like a grilled cheese.
- Warm up non-stick griddle (I use my electric griddle you can use a skillet or frying pan).
- Fry like a grilled cheese untl golden brown on both sides or cheese is melted.
- Cut them in half and eat!
- 7. I like to dip it in sour cream or salsa.
- 8. *One sub I have made is getting fajita meat and add just like the chilies to make them more of a meal.
