Tips and Conclusion

For the perfect accompaniment to your quesadillas, serve them with a side of fresh guacamole, sour cream, or a zesty salsa. This balance of creaminess and acidity complements the flavors of the quesadilla beautifully.

If you have leftovers (though they might be too delicious to last), you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Simply reheat them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes for the best results.

Feel free to get creative by incorporating your favorite ingredients—spinach, mushrooms, or different types of cheese all offer exciting ways to customize the dish.
