For some reason Quesadillas in my house seems like an easy meal, I mean I only have to make them for Andy and me... the kids make their own - with American Cheese... what? Yeah, let's not even talk about it. Years ago I had a quesadilla similar to this at a restaurant near my old work - it was amazing - until they closed and then I had to figure out how to make my own. Andy prefers his quesadillas with just cheese and piles the pico on after, I like mine packed with pico. No peppers in my pico, I'm a wimp. I do add lemon juice - so I eat as much of this until I can't feel parts of my mouth - then I'm done. This is such a fresh yummy meal. if you make the pico ahead it goes fast... if you are like me and wait to make it - it's cumbersome. I have a chopper that's amazing and makes the most perfect sized pieces for pico. And if you don't like cilantro? What on earth is wrong with you? It's awesome... makes the house smell amazing!
