Ingredients
  

1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)

1 cup mixed vegetables (bell peppers, spinach, mushrooms, and corn)

4 large flour tortillas

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon chili powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro (for garnish)

Salsa or sour cream (for dipping)

Instructions
 

Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3 minutes until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic, followed by the mixed vegetables. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Season with cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat.

    Cheese Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sautéed vegetable mixture with the shredded cheese. Mix until everything is well combined.

      Assemble the Quesadillas: Place one tortilla in the same skillet (you may need to wipe it clean or use a new skillet). On one half of the tortilla, spoon a generous amount of the cheesy vegetable filling. Fold the tortilla over to create a half-moon shape.

        Cook the Quesadillas: Cook the quesadilla for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden and the cheese begins to melt. Carefully flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

          Serve: Once cooked, remove the quesadillas from the skillet and let them cool for a minute. Cut them into wedges, and serve garnished with fresh cilantro alongside salsa or sour cream for dipping.
