Notes

For a healthier version, use whole wheat tortillas or low-carb alternatives.
You can swap mozzarella for a low-fat cheese if you're watching calories.
Veggies like spinach, mushrooms, and zucchini are great additions to make the quesadillas more filling and nutritious.
To avoid sogginess, don't overload the quesadilla with too many toppings.
These quesadillas can easily be frozen for later! Just bake, cool, wrap tightly, and store in the freezer for up to 2 months.
