CHEESY QUESADILLAS

CHEESE QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Lay the tortillas flat on a cookie sheet. Sprinkle some of the cheese on 1 half of each tortilla. Try not to get it too close to the edge. Fold the tortillas in half over the cheese to make a half-moon. Warm a skillet over low heat and add 1 tablespoon of the butter. Add the tortilla to the skillet and cook until it is lightly brown, about 2 minutes. Using a spatula, gently lift the edge so you can check. When 1 side is brown, turn the tortilla over and cook the other side until brown and the cheese is all gooey. Use a spatula to transfer to individual plates or a large platter. Repeat with remaining butter and tortillas. Top them with the sour cream, salsa and guacamole.

CHEESE QUESADILLAS

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.

THREE CHEESE QUESADILLA

Steps:

• Place a 10-inch saute pan over medium heat. Place butter in the pan, followed by a flour tortilla. Lay some of the cheeses in first, see Cook's Note.

Flip and cook until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with remaining tortillas and ingredients. Allow the quesadilla to cool before cutting, about 2 minutes. Cut into pie shapes. Place a dollop of sour cream and chives on top. Enjoy.
