home made quesadillas

Quesadilla is a tortilla filled with savory mixture containing cheese , meat, or vegetables then folded in half to form a half moon shape...its a mexican   originated dish. you can serve with chutney or its own.

I am pretty sure this name also little bit newer for my Srilankan  people.. but believe me guys this is very easy recipe to prepare in morning  ..for a breakfast or as a afternoon snack or for a school lunches. its taking very less time to make.

I made this simple recipe several time with easy tasty fillings. sometimes  with chicken, sausages, even tuna and potato mixture. you can use leftover vegis or meet or beans as well.  but keep it simple with the fillings. 


for Quesadillas you can use store bought wheat tortilla or home made flour tortillas. today I am going  to use my home made precooked tortilla  and mushroom sausages filling.
