About Cheese and garlic quesadilla
Cheese and Garlic Quesadilla is a savory dish inspired by Mexican cuisine, combining simple, flavorful ingredients. It features melted cheese layered within a warm tortilla, infused with the rich taste of sautéed garlic for added depth. This classic comfort food offers a satisfying balance of creamy texture and bold flavor. While tortillas and cheese provide energy through carbohydrates and fats, garlic contributes key antioxidants and compounds with potential health benefits. The dish is a source of calcium, important for bone health, derived from the cheese. As delicious as it is, the quesadilla can be high in saturated fats and calories depending on the type and amount of cheese used. For a lighter option, pair it with whole wheat tortillas or reduced-fat cheese and serve alongside fresh salsa or vegetables. Simple yet versatile, it’s a delicious treat with room for healthier adaptations.
