Halloween Quesadilla Recipe Directions:
How to Maker Halloween Quesadillas:
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Or, pre-heat Quesadilla maker if you have one.
If using oven, line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil.
Lightly spray the bottom of one flour tortilla and place it on the cookie sheet.
Add shredded Mexican or Taco cheese blend on top of the tortilla.
Place a second tortilla on top of the cheese.
Lightly spray the top of the tortilla with cooking oil spray.
Bake in oven for about 3 minutes.
Quesadilla is done when the cheese is melted, and the tortilla begins to turn a light brown.
Topping/Decorating the Quesadilla… this is the fun part. Use your imagination and “artistic” talent!
Use a pizza cutter to cut quesadilla into six slices, but do not separate them.
Use a spatula to spread some sour cream on the quesadilla.
Add splotches of salsa to represent blood.
Use black olives or Jalapenos to represent eyes.
Cut green pepper into a nose shape.
Use red or orange peppers for the mouth.
Use long slices or chopped green onion or chives for eyebrows and hair.
