Easy Whole Wheat Quesadilla
Servings: 2
Rate the Recipe:
There is nothing quite as easy to make as a Quesadilla. With lots of options, it is perfect as an evening snack for kids or a meal in itself.
Ingredients
- 2 whole wheat tortillas (thin rotis will do just fine)
- 1 medium onion diced
- 1 bowl bell peppers diced
- 3-4 sliced button mushrooms
- 1 medium tomato diced
- 1/4 tsp red chili flakes
- Grated cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
- 1 tsp Mexican seasoning (optional)
- Salt to taste
- Oil for brushing
Instructions
- Mix the vegetables in a bowl. Add in salt, red chilli flakes, and the Mexican seasoning. Mix it well.
- Take a skillet or a tawa (ideally non stick). Place the tortilla on the pan. Spread on the vegetable mixture generously. Top it off with the cheese of your choice.
- Cover it with the other tortilla and press down.
- Now very carefully, turn it over. I would suggest removing it to a plate. Cover it with another plate and turn it over. Now slide it back on the skillet.
- Cook on medium heat until golden and crisp.
- Cut into wedges and serve.
Notes
- You can experiment with different fillings (spinach, beans, meats, or even eggs).
- The tortillas can also be folded over to a ‘D’ shape.

This looks quite easy to cook. Can mushrooms be replaced by another ingredient? I’m allergic to mushrooms, so I need to look out for an alternative.
April 20, 2020 @ 6:44 pm
Sure beta. You can put any vegetables or meats of your choice in it. Fresh or leftover. We make this when we clean the fridge. 😀

I have only one doubt. Will the veggies get cooked or remain bit raw? Is that how it supposed to be? Or do we have to precook the vegetables, I mean little saute them?
April 20, 2020 @ 6:46 pm
It depends on you how you like the vegetables. These will be crunchy like a salad. Cooking on low heat will semi cook them, or you can saute them beforehand.
