Quesadilla Recipe ☆ Sincronizada

Sincronizadas are quesadillas made with ham and cheese. They were a common light meal in the part of Mexico where I stayed this year and make a quick and easy breakfast or lunch. Serve with your favorite salsa or canned chile slices.

Ingredients

• 2 (8 inch) flour tortillas
• ¼ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
• 2 slices ham

Cooking Directions

1. Warm a griddle or a flat pan over medium heat. Sprinkle 1/2 of the Monterey Jack cheese over 1 of the tortillas, add ham, and sprinkle the rest of the cheese over the ham. Top with the second tortilla.
2. Cook sincronizada on the griddle or flat pan until tortillas are lightly toasted and the cheese has melted, turning with a spatula or tongs to toast both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
