Note:

1) Quesadilla is pronounced as 'ka sa di ya'
2) You can add any veggies of your wish.
3) Can omit veggies and just add the cheese to make cheese Quesadilla.
4) Tossed Spinach and shredded paneer (indian cottage cheese) with some herbs would be good option too.
5) Garlic salt can be substituted with garlic powder and salt.
6) Use of butter increases the taste of the Quesadilla.
7) As i have used sundried tomato tortilla, i have not used tomatoes. When using a plain tortilla, adding diced tomatoes adds to the taste.
8) Any spices and herbs goes well.
