What kind of cheese is used in a Quesadilla at a Mexican Restaurant?!
Answers: I love the Quesadilla Del Mar (Quesadilla with cheese, crab meat and shrimp) at my local Mexican place, but I am dieting and have no idea how bad it is for me! If I knew what kind of cheese they use, I could guess at how many weight watcher points it is. Thanks!
Go to gourmetsleuth.com then in the search box type: guide to mexican cheeses. It will tell you all the cheeses and their substitutes.
I think they use mozzarella or cheddar... i've made them at home!! :)
Mmm quesadillas are usually made of "Oaxaca" cheese. I dont know the American name for a similar cheese tough.
A blend of monterey jack and mozzarella.
most mexican restaurants i go to use chedder cheese in their quesadillas. at home i use kraft mexican fiesta sheredded cheese. it has little bit's of jalapeno in it...(lots of people mistake it for mold.) i love quesadillas!
