How To Make A Cheesy Quesadilla

This easy-to-make Tex-Mex dish is great for a meal or even a snack. Since they are so simple to make and share, quesadillas make a great after-school snack for the kids. If you want a heartier quesadilla, add some chicken as well. You can make quesadillas in the oven or on the stovetop. If you want a crisp, golden texture, you may prefer to prepare them on the stove and finish them in the oven to make sure the cheese is thoroughly melted. You can use any mix of cheeses, but shredded melts quickly and evenly. Try a mix of cheddar, pepper jack, monetary or even queso fresco. Be sure to serve your quesadilla with plenty of toppings like salsa, guacamole, and sour cream. In this video, Chef Michael will show you how to make a cheesy quesadilla. For more great cooking demonstration videos, subscribe to the LearnToCookOnline YouTube channel.
