Lay a single tortilla down on the pan and arrange cheese on the edges. + - Arrange on 1 edge if you are making a folded quesadilla. Do both edges if using 2 tortillas. The cheese will help make sure the ingredients don't fall out when flipping. +3. Add the ingredients onto one half of the tortilla if using 1, or the entire surface if using 2. +4. Fold empty half of the tortilla in the pan onto itself if you are only using one tortilla. + - If you are using 2 simply place the second on top of the first. +5. Periodically flip the torilla until both sides are golden brown. + - This may be hard if using 2 tortillas, so try your best or transfer it to a plate, flip it with your hands, and transfer it back to the pan. ## Contributors - peebowo +- Zyansheep ;tags: mexican quick -- cgit v1.2.3
