Farmers' Market Quesadillas

Ingredients
Assortment of fresh veggies: squash, zucchini, mushrooms, onion, etc., sliced
Olive Oil
Cooking spray
Cheddar Cheese, shredded
Whole wheat tortillas

Directions
1.) Add a bit of olive oil to your non-stick skillet and add your favorite spices and seasonings (think garlic, crushed red pepper, cumin, black pepper, etc.).  Let heat on medium heat for less than a minute.
2.) Throw in your sliced veggies and cook until just tender, around 7 minutes or less.  Remove the veggies from pan and set aside.
3.) Coat the same pan with cooking spray and add one tortilla to your pan.  Sprinkle cheddar cheese on your tortilla and fill half the tortilla with your cooked veggies.  Fold in half and cook until both sides are golden brown.
4.) Serve with your favorite salsa, green salad, and sliced summer fruit.  Enjoy!
