Veggie Quesadillas

I love these! This was a meal my mom made for us growing up. They are easy, yummy, and frugal. I will do my best at putting measurements, but do realize that this is a Mexican dish and therefore measurements are very vague. Feel free to modify.

Veggie Quesadillas (a.k.a. Tacos de Chile Poblano y Queso)

- 2 chile poblanos - broil them for about 5 minutes on each side until dark and crisp. Place them in a plastic bag, close bag and let cool. Then peel the skin off, remove seeds and slice in strips.
- 1 1/2 cups of corn
- Half an onion, sliced in strips
- 1 tablespoon of butter or margarine
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup of cheese (use any Mexican blend cheese or favorite)
- 6 Tortillas

Melt butter in pan. Add onions and let fry for a few minutes. Add corn, peppers and salt and pepper.



When nice and warm and mixed well together, turn off heat and sprinkle cheese on top.


Let melt. Serve on tortillas and roll up. Enjoy!

Hey, question. How necessary is it to get the peel off of the poblano? Could you just de-seed it and saute it? Also, do you use fresh/frozen/canned corn?
