- 1 10 oz. can red enchilada sauce
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 2 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 1/2 cups shredded Monterrey Jack cheese
- 10 8-inch flour tortillas
- 3 green onions chopped
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spread a few tablespoons of enchilada sauce in bottom of lightly greased, 9-inch pie plate.
Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Toss cheeses together in a medium bowl.
Place about 1/4 cup of cheese mixture onto half of a tortilla. Fold the tortillas over to create half moons. Repeat with remaining tortillas times. You should have a bit of extra cheese.
Layer two quesadillas in the pie plate, overlapping a bit if needed. Spread about 3 tablespoons of enchilada sauce over the quesadillas. Repeat until you have used all of the quesadillas.
Spoon remaining enchilada sauce over the top of the quesadilla stack and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
Place the pie plate on a cookie sheet to catch any drips. Bake for about 20 minutes or until edges begin to brown and the sauce and cheese are bubbling. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing into wedges to serve. Top with favorite taco toppings, if desired.
