First of all, it no matter what you put between two slices of grilled wraps with cheese, it's going to be delicious! LOL! In fact, I encourage you to mix and match whatever ingredients you have in your kitchen to your liking and grill those bad boys! However, if you'd like to try this beautiful baby above - you definitely will not be disappointed!
Much like her sister, the Spinach Wrap Quesadilla, this Tomato Basil Wrap is sure to please the pickiest of eaters! Whether you use this recipe or scraps from leftover dinner, quesadillas are always a win-win for those quick fixes.
This is a recipe I actually came up with after I ate all the spinach wraps, lol. This Tomato Basil Wrap Quesadilla recipe is fool-proof UNLESS, you’re horrible at flipping things in a skillet.

Quesadilla
2-3 slices of Daiya Provolone (broke in pieces)

I used a jarred, low sodium, pre-made salsa of my choice. Whether homemade or store bought, any salsa of your choice will work in this recipe.*
