For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a can of diced tomatoes or some chopped bell peppers to the slow cooker. If you prefer a spicier quesadilla, use a hot enchilada sauce or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the taco seasoning mix. Serve with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, sour cream, guacamole, diced onions, black olives, or a squeeze of lime juice. These quesadillas are also great for meal prepping! Assemble the quesadillas and store them in the refrigerator for a quick and easy lunch or dinner during the week.
