When my kids were younger I made this quesadillas recipe often. For some reason we called them “cowboy quesadillas" and the name stuck. They were a well-loved recipe in our house for several reasons:
- They’re a sneaky way to get the kids to eat their veggies.
- Even my pickier child happily ate them.
- They work for lunch, dinner or snack time.
- They’re quick and easy!
- Make-Your-Own-Quesadilla-Night can become a favorite family tradition. Add in a movie and it’s a full night of fun!
My kids are older now and I don’t need to sneak their vegetables in, but they still love their quesadillas! This quesadilla recipe has an interesting ingredient: garden vegetable pasta sauce. I hope your family enjoys this easy recipe as much as mine does.
