Kid and Adult-Friendly: Easy Pizza Quesadillas

April 16, 2009

img_1752

It’s my oldest son, Alec’s, birthday this weekend so I thought I would feature a recipe that he actually made up himself. It’s Pizza Quesadillas, and for those of you who have kids, take note. My kids actually make these by themselves with little help (except turning on and off the stove) so when you’re in a pinch on what to have for dinner, give these quesadillas a try.
