Make Yourself A Dang Quesadilla! - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (10 inch) flour tortillas
    1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (jack is good too)
    3 slices tomatoes
    1 teaspoon olive oil
    2 slices red onions (thin slices, about 1/8-1/4 inch thick)
    1/4 cup sliced zucchini (about 1/3 medium zucchini)
    2 tablespoons frozen corn kernels
    1/3 jalapeno pepper, minced
    1 teaspoon lemon juice (that's approximate I usually just give half a lemon a good squirt) or 1 teaspoon lime juice (that's approximate I usually just give half a lemon a good squirt)
    ground cumin
    chili powder
    salt
    salsa, to serve
Preparation
    Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat; add onions and cook until they begin to soften.
    Add zucchini, corn, jalapeno, a squirt of lemon or lime juice and seasonings to taste; Lower heat to medium and cook until veggies are tender.
    Place tortilla in a large skillet over low heat; place cheese and tomato slices on half the tortilla, top with zucchini mixture, and fold the empty side of the tortilla over it, pressing down lightly with a spatula.
    When the cheese begins to melt and the tortilla starts to brown, flip and brown the other side as well.
    Slice into wedges and serve with salsa or sour cream.
    **For 2 quesadillas (or a mega-quesadilla), double the filling ingredients, spread them on the entire tortilla and place another tortilla on top -- flipping is a little trickier, but otherwise the method is the same).
