These quesadillas are very simple to make but they are full of flavor. They are ideal for a snack or lunch. Add a soup and you will have a meatless meal.

📝 Ingredients

  • 8 regular size corn tortillas
  • 10 oz queso fresco
  • Pico de gallo salsa (learn how to make it with our recipe. *)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1I recommend buying fresh corn tortillas; the fresher the better.
  2. 2Prepare the pico de gallo and place it in the fridge until ready to serve.
  3. 3Cut the queso fresco in long slices. Set aside.
  4. 4Heat the tortillas on a comal, a pan or griddle, until warm and soft. Transfer them to a tortilla warmer (tortillero)
  5. 5I don’t recommend trying to melt the queso fresco on the tortilla while warming the tortilla. First, it doesn’t melt the way you would expect, and second, it will just make your quesadilla soggy.
  6. 6Take one of the tortillas add a slice (or two) of queso fresco and pico de gallo to taste. That’s it, enjoy!
