Get this spicy and savory appetizer on the table in less than a half hour! These Cheesy Wonton Quesadillas are packed full of cheese and refried beans and fried until they are light and crispy. Serve them up with salsa and you have a snack that will be hard to resist. But hey, wonton wrappers are much smaller and slightly thinner than tortillas, so feel free to grab more than one (or several more than one, because these are really that good). If you are planning on sharing these with guests, we suggest just doubling this fried quesadilla recipe!
