Cozmo's Kitchen - Cozmo's Quickie Quesadillas

A quick, kid friendly snack.

Today's Recipe - Cozmo's Quickie Quesadillas

Memorial Day weekend has come and gone and it's time to be outside in the sun. It's also the time of the year when you want the kids to have something good for lunch that doesn't keep you locked in the kitchen for very long. Quesadillas are one answer to your summertime snack problem. Yeah, I know, a quesadilla is a quesadilla, but, Cozmo's Quickie Quesadillas are specially designed for the little ones.

Margarine
6 inch flour tortillas
Shredded Jack/Cheddar Cheese
Hot dogs
Ketchup

Dice up a couple of hot dogs. Drop a spoon of margarine into a warm frying pan and let it melt. Lay a tortilla onto the melted butter and immediately lift it out. Lay a second tortilla in the frying pan. cover the tortilla in the frying pan with shredded cheese. Add a handful of diced hot dogs and cover it with the first tortilla (buttered side up).
Let the quesadilla fry for a few minutes to let the cheese melt and the bottom tortilla brown. Flip the quesadilla and brown the other tortilla. Remove the quesadilla from the frying pan, cut it into 6 even pieces and throw it on a plate with a dab of ketchup. Holler for the kids - it's snack time!

Pop in next week for a more grown up recipe as we get back to the grill to make some Spicy Vodka Chicken!
