What Are Quesadillas?

Quesadillas are a Mexican dish consisting of a tortilla filled with ingredients like cheese, meats, vegetables, etc.

Once the tortilla is filled with the ingredients of choice, it is then cooked on a griddle or stove.

What Makes My Homemade Quesadillas So Cheesy?

It’s all about the cheese that you use! I love using Borden® Melts Pepper Jack slices because they use real cream so that each slice melts to perfection.

If you’re longing for big flavor and extra creaminess in every bite, then Borden Melts Pepper Jack slices are the way to go.

Do Borden Melts Come in Other Varieties?

Absolutely! That’s the best part about this extra creamy product line.

Besides the Pepper Jack flavor, they also offer American, Extra Sharp Cheddar and Swiss.

I particularly love the pepper jack variety because it gives my quesadillas a bit of a spicy kick.

However, the extra sharp cheddar also makes for the perfect addition to any quesadilla recipe.

What Can I Pair With These Ultra Cheesy Quesadillas?

I love serving the following side dishes with my cheesy quesadillas:

  • Guacamole
  • Refried beans
  • Cilantro rice
  • Tortilla chips

An All-American Cheese

You know how picky I can get with the ingredients I use in my family’s meals. This is why Borden Melts have become my go-to in my cooking endeavors.

As mentioned previously, they only use real cream, which explains the perfection in their flavor and texture.

Plus, it’s also made with milk from 100% family-owned American dairy farms. Now that’s something I can stand behind!

How Else Can I Use Borden Melts?

The possibilities are endless when it comes to using Borden Melts. Remember my Grilled Cheese Panini from last year? I used Borden Melts for those! They would also be perfect for:

  • Cheeseburgers
  • Cheese omelets
  • Topping for chili
  • Topping for French fries
  • Cheesesteaks

…the possibilities are endless!
