Instructions
- 01
Lightly coat one side of each tortilla with mayonnaise. Place one tortilla mayo side down on a plate or cutting board. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese evenly over the entire tortilla, leaving about half an inch around the edge uncovered.
- 02
If desired, add the diced veggies, then top with the other tortilla, leaving the mayo side facing up.
- 03
Preheat a non-stick pan to medium-low heat. Add the butter and spread around, allowing it to melt.
- 04
Gently transfer the assembled quesadilla from the plate to the preheated pan, placing it down in the same way it was on your plate. Cover the pan with a lid.
- 05
Allow your quesadilla to cook for 2-5 minutes over medium-low heat. Once the bottom browns and the cheese has mostly melted, flip the quesadilla over. Cover it again with the lid, and allow it to cook for another 2-5 minutes until both sides are nicely browned and the cheese is fully melted.
- 06
Remove from the pan, cut and serve with sour cream, guacamole and salsa.
