Quesadillas
While purists may argue about whether “real” quesadillas are made with masa or wheat tortillas, what ingredients belong inside, and even if they should be folded in half or simply sandwiched, everyone can decide for themselves what tastes good. Homemade chili base, green onions and peppers seem a good way to start. Toss a little Mexican oregano and cumin on there..
