About Dillas

Dillas, short for quesadillas, are a popular dish with roots in Mexican cuisine. They consist of a tortilla, typically made from corn or flour, folded around a filling and cooked until warm and slightly crispy. Common fillings include melted cheese, grilled meats, sautéed vegetables, and beans, though variations can include more indulgent or creative additions. Quesadillas are a great source of protein and calcium, depending on the ingredients used, and can be tailored to suit various dietary preferences. The tortilla provides carbohydrates for energy, while vegetables add essential vitamins and fiber. However, their healthiness depends on preparation methods; frying, heavy cheese, or processed fillings can increase calorie and fat content. Opting for whole-grain tortillas, lean proteins, and fresh veggies can enhance their nutritional value, making dillas a versatile option for a wholesome, satisfying meal.
