These Easy Green Chile & Corn Quesadillas take only 12 minutes to make, are an easy lunch or dinner option and are vegetarian friendly! Plus, they're also an inexpensive meal. All you need are some flour tortillas, canned corn, canned diced green chiles and shredded cheese!
In a small bowl, combine corn, diced green chilies, salt and onion powder.
Preheat large tortilla griddle or skillet over medium heat.
Place one tortilla on griddle and top with green chile and corn mixture, spreading evenly.
Sprinkle with shredded cheese (and shredded chicken, if using).
Top with other tortilla and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, smashing the quesadilla down with a spatula to help the cheese melt. Make sure the tortilla browns but doesn’t burn.
Quickly flip over quesadilla with spatula and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes.
Cut into fourths and serve with chopped cilantro and sour cream.
Enjoy!
Notes
If you're a meat-lover and want to add some extra protein to your quesadilla, I recommend adding 1/2 cup of shredded chicken and an additional 2 tbsp of shredded cheese to help everything stick together nicely.
