Corn Salsa Quesadillas

Yesterday night I experimented with making quesadillas for dinner.  It turned out surprisingly well and the kids loved it!  They ate it without slowing down, which says something

Here’s the recipe:

2 teaspoons chili powder

1-1/2 teaspoons ground cumin

1 Tablespoon sugar

1 teaspoon soy sauce

__________

2 C onions, chopped

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 C frozen corn

2 C tomatoes, chopped (about 4-5 Roma tomatoes)

1/4 C cilantro, or more to taste

__________

8 large flour tortillas

24 slices cheddar cheese

6 Tablespoons olive oil

1. Heat olive oil in skillet.
2. Mix together chili powder, ground cumin, sugar and soy sauce in a bowl.
3. Sautee onions and garlic.  Add frozen corn.  Cook 4-5 minutes.
4. Add chili powder & cumin mixture.  Cook another 1-2 minutes.
5. Remove from heat.  Add tomatoes and cilantro.  Mix well.  Remove to separate bowl.
6. Heat olive oil in skillet – add flour tortilla with 3 slices of cheese.  Heat until cheese is melted and tortilla is browned to a crisp.
7. Remove flour tortilla to plate.  Add corn salsa mixture.  Fold tortilla in half and cut into quarters.

Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
