Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. This barely needs directions. Spread the ricotta and pesto on one tortilla, and top with the gruyere and the second tortilla.
  2. Heat the oil in a medium, heavy bottom skillet, and lay the quesadilla carefully in the skillet, trying to keep the cheese inside. Cook it for about 2 minutes on one side, then flip it over and give it another 2 or 3 minutes on the other. Let it cool off for a minute or so before you cut it into 6 - 8 pieces, so the cheese doesn't all melt out and burn you. You can make a bunch of these as appetizers at a party, or one for a small dinner.
