Ingredients

  • Bell Peppers / Capsicum green or colored : 1 cup approximately, sliced thin
  • Onion : 1 cup sliced thin
  • Oil : 1/2 tbsp plus little more for grilling the Quesidellas
  • Corn Kernels : 1/4 cup full
  • Cheese : 1 cup. You may use Monterey Queso, cheddar or any other available.
  • Tortillas : 8-10 small or 4-6 medium
  • Home made Taco seasoning : 1/2 tbsp to 1 tbsp
  • Salt : to taste
  • Lime or lemon juice : 1/2 tsp
  • Accompaniments : salsa guacamole, sour cream, hot sauce. You may use all or any one to match your taste.

Instructions

  • Preparing the stuffing : Take a pan. Heat oil in the pan. Add onions and bell peppers together. Sauté them on high heat for 4-5 minutes. Add taco seasoning and salt. Toss well. Switch the stove off. Add lemon or lime juice. Set aside.
  • Assembling and cooking the Quesidellas : heat the griddle or pan on the stove with little oil or 1 oil spray. Lay a tortilla flat on the pan. Spread the prepared stuffing on it. Top with cheese. Now place another tortilla on the top. Press it down with flat spatula and cook for 2 minutes approximately on medium heat. Flip carefully, without letting the ingredients fly around. Now cook the other side. All done :). Finish the tortillas and stuffing similarly.

Notes

It is a great dish for either a complete meal, entertaining or snacking. A totally fun dish for game night.
