step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). On a baking sheet, toss Poblano Pepper (1) and Red Bell Pepper (1) in 1 tablespoon of Corn Oil (1 Tbsp).
step 2
Roast for 10-12 minutes until blistered. Remove from heat and place in a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit for 5 minutes to steam.
step 3
Under running water in the sink, remove skin from peppers and then cut into strips the same size as Yellow Onion (1).
step 4
Combine Queso Quesadilla (1 1/2 cups), La Vaquita® Queso Fresco (1/2 cup), peppers, and onion in a bowl.
step 5
In a nonstick pan, heat a tablespoon of Corn Oil (2 Tbsp) over medium high heat.
step 6
Place one White Corn Tortillas (6) on pan and then top with 4 tablespoons of cheese and pepper mix.
step 7
Top with second tortilla. When cheese begins to melt and bottom tortilla begins to brown, flip the quesadilla.

Repeat for remaining 2 quesadillas. Garnish with more La Vaquita® Queso Fresco before serving.
