Instructions

1

In a large bowl, combine the shredded Monterey Jack cheese, diced tomatoes, diced red onions, chopped cilantro, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

2

Spread the cheese mixture evenly over two tortillas. Place the remaining two tortillas on top to form quesadillas.

3

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add one quesadilla to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are crispy.

4

Repeat with the remaining quesadilla, adding more oil if needed.

5

Remove the quesadillas from the skillet and let them cool for a minute before slicing into wedges.

6

Serve hot and enjoy!
