Question: Type of cheese and name of recipie!?

it was a deep fried corn tortilla topped with beans, lettuce and cheese!. She told me what it was called and then the name of the cheese, but I forgot!. I think it might have been queso fresco, but i'm not totally sure!.!.

queso fresco just means fresh cheese!. Probably mozzerella!. Even though it's usually used in italian dishes, it melts well and is often bought fresh in stores!. Some people even make it at home!. What color was it!? Www@FoodAQ@Com
