    The addition of tequila was a stroke of genius! Great for vegetarians and meat-lovers alike (we are the latter). We used raw tortillas from Costco and cooked them before adding the ingredients. Came out crispy and delicious. Thanks for posting!

    Guadalajaran Swiss Chard Quesadillas, There is a Guadelajaran Quesadilla recipe on here, also from Vegetarian Times, that uses spinach and ingredients are different So I thought I’d post this one too , The addition of tequila was a stroke of genius! Great for vegetarians and meat-lovers alike (we are the latter) We used raw tortillas from Costco and cooked them before adding the ingredients Came out crispy and delicious Thanks for posting!, With just a splash of tequila in my pantry- this recipe was just beckoning to be tried! used locally made spinach tortillas and left them uncooked We also used locally grown rainbow chard (red, orange, and yellow) and added some fresh chives We used less chard to make this dish for two, and it was very amazing! The flavor of the chard really reminded me of mushrooms We left our Quesadillas open faced and topped with fresh, local romaine lettuce A must try!
