Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a thin layer of oil—it should shimmer, ~60 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Lay a tortilla on the skillet. Scatter half the cheese on one side, then add about 1/2 cup squash blossoms.

  3. Step 3

    Top with more cheese, then fold tortilla in half. Cook until golden and crispy, ~2 minutes per side.

  4. Step 4

    Repeat with remaining tortillas, cheese, and squash blossoms to make a second quesadilla.

  5. Step 5

    Slice quesadillas into triangles. Serve with guacamole, salsa, and tortilla chips on the side.
