Barb, I served these for dinner several nights ago and they were scarfed down by everyone. I did add some fajita chicken I had on hand to some of the quesadillas and they were a hit, too! I mix sour cream with salsa for a nice creamy/spicy dip, and that was perfect for these. We could have eaten these all night long.

Perfect accompaniment to some vegetarian tortilla soup I made tonight. I used butterkase cheese because we usually keep it on hand for grilled cheese sandwiches. I also added some chopped tomatoe. Thanx Barb!
