1

Heat oven to 350ºF.
2

Spread 1/3 cup of the cheese evenly over half of each tortilla. Sprinkle tomato, onions, chilies and cilantro over cheese. Fold tortillas over filling. Place on ungreased baking sheet.
3

Bake about 5 minutes or just until cheese is melted. Serve quesadillas whole, or cut each into 3 wedges, beginning cuts from centre of folded sides.

Grilling Directions: Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Lightly brush vegetable oil on one side of each tortilla; add filling ingredients on other side of each tortilla as directed. Fold tortillas over filling. Grill tortillas uncovered 4 inches from medium heat 2 to 4 minutes, turning once, until cheese begins to melt and tortillas begin to brown (watch carefully).
