My Very Favorite Quesadillas are a delicious and easy meal that can be prepared in minutes. These quesadillas are filled with shredded muenster cheese, chopped green onion, canned diced green chiles, and fresh cilantro.

5.	Cook the quesadilla for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

7.	Repeat with the remaining tortillas and cheese mixture.
