Love me some quesadillas.
Quesa-dillas. (Saids like arma-dillo. Really, arma-dilla.)
Really, you pronounce the dilla with a “y” sound in place of the “ll”…but I’m silly and call them Quesa-dillas.
I like to add a tiny dollop of sour cream, then salsa and then a jalapeno to each bite!
Zippy, zesty and crazy yummy!!!
