Very delicious. Instead of dipping into tomato sauce, we just spread it right IN the quesadilla. We think this should be for four servings---unless it's a main dish. Also great as an afternoon snack (using the leftovers from lunch!). This is a KEEPER!

Dear Daughter (11 y.o.) made these for our lunch today, and I must say, we made pigs of ourselves! Ymmm! She heated the sauce in the microwave--which went very slick. I think next time, we'll use some pre-cooked sausage crumbles for a different taste! Definitely a KEEPER-recipe!

This is a winner! I added these to my appetizer buffet and should have tripled the recipe. Everyone kept asking "Where are those little pizza sandwich thingys?" when they were gone. Excellent! They were a tiny bit hard to turn in the pan (without losing the stuffing), so if you add just a touch of mozz over the oregano the melted cheese helps the top tortilla stick when you flip it.

I love these! I use whole wheat carb balance tortillas and turkey pepperoni with lots of veggies. Yummy!
