Quesdillas
2 to 3 tablespoons oil, for frying
8 (8-1nch) tortillas
2 cups Monterey Jack cheese
Heat oil in a 8 to 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Place a tortilla into the skillet, then add a generous handful of cheese on top. Allow to cook about 20 seconds, or enough to just brown bottom of tortilla, then fold one edge over the other, pressing down to make a flat quesadilla. Cook another 20 seconds or so, then flip quesadilla. Cook a few more seconds.
Serve immediately, with sour cream, salsa or guacamole.
Variations:
For a vegetable quesadilla, add a few tablespoons of tomato and chopped onion.
For a chicken quesadilla, add a few tablespoons cooked and shredded chicken breast.
For a sausage quesadilla, add a few tablespoons cooked, minced spicy sausage (such as chorizo).
