About Quesadilla

A Quesadilla is a Mexican dish of a tortilla filled with cheese, folded and cooked on a griddle until the cheese melts. The name comes from queso, the Spanish word for cheese.

In Mexico, quesadillas are often made with corn tortillas and Oaxaca cheese, and other fillings like mushrooms, squash blossoms, chorizo or huitlacoche.

In Mexico City, quesadillas are often made without cheese, a topic of endless debate. They are served with salsa, guacamole and sour cream.
