Here are some tips for making different varieties. Find your family’s favorite.
• To make pizza quesadillas, substitute mozzarella cheese for colby jack. Omit pineapple and use pepperoni slices and/or ham. For dip, use marinara sauce.
• To make Southwest-style quesadillas, substitute Mexican-style cheese and dot with refried beans. For dip, use salsa.
• To make orange pumpkin faces, use pastry brush to paint carved tortillas with colored water. To make, use 1 or 2 drops food coloring in small bowl of water. Make goblin or zombie pumpkin faces with green or purple-colored water.
