Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Lay 2 tortillas on a plate. Sprinkle 1/2 cup cheese evenly over each, then scatter 1/4 cup flower petals on top.

  2. Step 2

    Top with the remaining 2 tortillas, pressing gently to keep the filling in place.

  3. Step 3

    Heat 1 tbsp butter or oil in a large skillet over medium. Place one quesadilla in the pan and cook until golden and crisp, about 2-3 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Flip carefully with a spatula and cook the other side until golden and the cheese is melted, another 2-3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining butter and quesadilla.

  5. Step 5

    Transfer to a cutting board, let rest 1 minute, then slice into wedges and serve warm.
