This gluten-free quesadilla is made with corn tortillas that contain no flour. If you aren’t gluten-sensitive, feel free to buy the corn tortillas that have flour in them if you like them better. The GF tortillas I buy from Trader Joe’s have only corn and lime, and as such they are somewhat prone to fall apart with too much handling.
Cutting this into four wedges makes it easier to eat without falling apart.
The photo shows the quesadillas on a paper plate served with a small side of leftover roasted potatoes.
