  • 1 cup store bought salsa verde, available on chip and snack aisle or in Mexican food section

Cover half of the tortilla with cheese and chilies, then fold over. Press down gently with spatula. Cook quesadilla 15 seconds more on each side, transfer to a cutting board. Repeat. Pile up 2 completed quesadillas at a time and cut into 3 generous wedges. The yield will be 12 pieces from 4 quesadillas.

    This was so easy to make. I would substitue the poblano chiles to something a little hotter...that is if you like a little spice.

    I found this recipe to be a favorite at my house. My family loves hot stuff so they loved the hot poblanos. I also made some with the smoked chedder but put ham on them and they were also delicious. This dish is a perfect appitizer for a dinner party.
