If adding meat, cook and season it to taste. Sauté any vegetables until they are tender.
Assemble the Quesadilla:
Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Sprinkle cheese evenly over one half of the tortilla. Add any other desired fillings on top of the cheese.
Fold the tortilla over to cover the fillings, creating a half-moon shape.
Cook the Quesadilla:
Heat a small amount of butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place the quesadilla in the skillet, and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden and crispy and the cheese has melted. Repeat with remaining tortillas and fillings.
Serve:
Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve hot, ideally with sides like salsa, sour cream, or guacamole.
