Quesadilla is a Mexican Dish which is a grilled tortilla with melted cheese, chicken and veggies. This is an easy recipe where you can throw in whatever veggies you have in your fridge. You can also variate it with mushrooms instead of chicken and make a vegetarian version too.
I made this recently for a story hop in Instagram similar to my previous post. The theme was a quick tea time snack, When suddenly the idea of Quesadillas came into my mind. I personally love quesadillas mainly because I have of my favorite things in it- cheese and then chicken (heheh). I usually make Quesadillas either as a breakfast or as for Iftar at home. This is a quick oil-free snack option for Iftar too.
