Quesadillas are typically Mexican or Southwestern American–style snacks made with white or whole wheat flour tortillas and melted cheese. (In Spanish, the word quesadilla means “little cheesy thing.”) But once you’ve made a couple of quesadilla variations, you’ll figure out many other possibilities. For example, these tasty triangles are filled with Spanish ingredients—Manchego cheese and Serrano ham—and topped with Spanish smoked paprika.
