Quesadillas are quick, easy and perfect as a snack or light meal. It’s even better when you have a supply on hand in the freezer ready to go when you really aren’t in the mood to be “creative”. I promise you there are endless combinations for fillings, so use your imagination combining ingredients you like…in the meantime, here’s a recipe that has become one of my client’s favorites!
I’ve also included a short video tutorial on how I wrap them for the freezer… enjoy!
