One of my favourite quesadillas has to be Zucchini flowers. It is full of flavour from the flowers, and it is also a good sign that spring here to enjoy them :)
400gmozzarella cheesesubstitute with any melty cheese

To serve:
12corn tortillaspreferably from La Tortilleria

Instructions
Remove the centre of the zucchini flower, cut them into large pieces, and wash them in boiling water with a little salt for about 5 minutes.
Chop the onion, jalapeño, garlic and crumble the cheese.
Heat a bit of oil in a pan over medium heat and sauté the onion until it becomes transparent, then add the garlic, chilli and a little salt, cook for another couple of minutes and add the zucchini flower, cook for another 5 minutes.
Heat a clean skillet or comal and reheat the tortillas, add cheese on top and the zucchini flower filling, fold the tortilla in half, letting heat a couple of minutes on each side so that the cheese melts.
Serve with whole or refried beans on the side and your favourite salsa on top.
