Answer 3

For Christmas, I got one of those quesadilla machines. I have used it 5 out of 7 nights now. The kids just love it. We buy the chicken fajitas that are frozen and already cooked and we just warm them up in the microwave. We use 10 inch flour tortillas. We butter one side of the tortilla, lay it down on the machine (butter side up), add shredded monterrey jack cheese, then the chicken fajita meat, chopped up green onion, lots and lots and lots of cilantro (you can never have enough of this) and sometimes we will add an avocado and salsa. We put another tortilla on top of that, close the lid to the machine, set the timer for 4 minutes and when it gets crisp and lightly brown, it's done. Best quesadilla's we've ever had. Happy eating!
