  • Add a layer of pepperoni slices over cheese. You can also use other meats like chicken, steak, ham, etc. 
  • Add vegetables or pineapple (optional)
  • Sprinkle on another layer of cheese.
  • Place another tortilla on top.
  • Continue cooking until the bottom tortilla is golden brown, then flip the quesadilla.
  • Cook the other side until it’s golden brown. 
  • Move to a cutting board to cool for one minute. Cut into wedges.
