Indulge in the savory delight of these Quesadillas with Three Cheeses! Perfect for a quick meal bursting with Mexican flavors, this recipe combines the gooey goodness of cheddar, cream cheese, and parmesan, all wrapped in a warm flour tortilla. With a colorful array of veggies and a hint of cumin, each bite is a fiesta for your taste buds!

Ingredients:

• 1 tsp olive oil
• 1/4 onion, diced
• 1/8 red bell pepper, diced
• 1/8 green bell pepper, diced
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 cup low-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1 1/2 tbsp cream cheese
• 1 1/2 tbsp parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 tsp cumin
• 2 (6-inch) flour tortillas
• Cherry tomatoes, for garnish
• Lime wedges, for garnish
• Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions:

1. In a small nonstick skillet, heat 3/4 teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté until the bell peppers are tender-crisp, about 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.

2. In a small mixing bowl, using a fork, combine the remaining ingredients (cheddar cheese, cream cheese, parmesan cheese, and cumin), stirring until well combined.

3. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).

4. Onto the bottom half of one flour tortilla, spoon half of the sautéed vegetable mixture, then top it with half of the cheese mixture. Fold the tortilla in half and gently press to close. Repeat the same procedure with the remaining vegetable mixture, cheese mixture, and tortilla.

5. Arrange the filled tortillas on a nonstick baking sheet and brush each quesadilla with half of the remaining olive oil.

6. Bake in the preheated oven until the cheeses are melted and the tortillas are golden brown, about 5 minutes.

7. Remove from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Then, cut each quesadilla in half to make 4 portions.

8. Garnish with cherry tomatoes, lime wedges, and fresh parsley as desired.

9. Serve immediately and enjoy the melty, cheesy goodness!
