Simple Low Carb Quesadilla

Ingredients

• Olive oil

  Salad or cooking

  1 tsp or 5g

• Tortillas, Carb Balance

  Mission

  1 tortilla or 43g

• Cheddar cheese

  4 tbsp, shredded or 28g

• Salsa

  Sauce, ready-to-serve

  2 tbsp or 32g

Directions

1. This recipe is written assuming one tortilla folded over, but can easily use two tortillas for a larger serving.
2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil (or butter, if preferred).
3. Place the tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over one half of the tortilla. Fold the tortilla in half, pressing down gently with a spatula to help the cheese begin to melt and hold the tortilla together.
4. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy.
5. Flip the folded quesadilla and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted and the tortilla is crispy.
6. Remove from skillet, let it cool for a minute, then cut into wedges if desired. Enjoy as is, or with a side of salsa or sour cream.
