These quesadillas are so simple—they make a great light appetizer before a big meal. The lime juice adds a fresh citrus zing.

Ingredients

Method

  1. Place the tortillas on a heated grill or dry skillet over medium heat to warm slightly, 30 to 60 seconds, then flip and warm on the other side.
  2. Scatter the cheese and scallions over the tortillas, then sprinkle with the lime juice.
  3. Continue to warm the quesadillas until the cheese has melted, 3 to 4 minutes. Fold each tortilla in half and serve.
