Quesadillas are a popular Mexican dish that can be made with a variety of fillings. They're typically made with corn tortillas, but whole wheat tortillas can be used for a healthier option. Roasted vegetables are a great way to add flavor and nutrition to quesadillas. Feta cheese is a salty, crumbly cheese that adds a nice contrast to the sweet roasted vegetables. Fresh cilantro adds a bright, herbaceous flavor to the quesadillas.
