In the April issue of Vegetarian Times, I found a recipe for Potato Quesadillas. It seemed very simple, so I gave it a try.
Potatoes and onions are cooked up, with a few spices.
Once potatoes are cooked, heat a tortilla in a frying pan. Add shredded cheese, potatoes, and tomatoes.
Top with more cheese, and fold over. Cook till tortilla is golden and crisp, and cheese melts.
Of course...we didn't have ten-inch tortillas, so with our six-inch ones, I put a second tortilla on top, instead of folding.
They were good, although there could have been more flavor. Matt added hot sauce to his. I'm not sure what I'd do to 'kick it up a notch'...maybe more spices?
Still, a not bad dish.

- Now That's Some Left-overs
I think this ended up being more a frittata than a tortilla, despite the ingredients. Using up bits and pieces, to make a meal for Matt. Some already-cooked potatoes, cubed and browned. A link of chorizo that had been living in the cheese/cold cuts...
