Ingredients & Equipment You’ll Need

• 1 Red Bell Pepper (thinly sliced)

How To Make Sheet Pan Quesadilla

1. Start off by pre-heating your oven to 375��F (190��C). You want your oven nice and hot before the goodies go in.
2. Grab your sheet pan and lay down 4 tortillas side by side, creating a base. This will support all our fillings and transform into crispy, golden goodness in the oven.
3. Next step is all about layering. Sprinkle half the cheese over the tortillas. Spread out your chosen protein (chicken or beans), bell peppers, jalapenos, and corn. Season it well with your spices and drizzle some olive oil on top for that rich taste.
4. Finally, layer the remaining tortillas on top, pressing them gently. Brush some olive oil on top and pop this baby in the oven.
5. Bake until the quesadilla is golden and crispy, about 20 minutes. Let it cool slightly before cutting into squares.

Tips For The Best Results
