Corn Capsicum Paneer Quesadilla

Corn Capsicum Paneer Quesadilla is a kid friendly quick meal you can that you can make for breakfast or pack for lunch. The easy tortilla recipe works very quickly as you cold butter and with an easy filling, your dish is ready.

I packed this for Konda's lunch and served it for Peddu's breakfast. Both came back asking for more and wanted this to be their regular item. While one might think kneading a dough and making a filling is tough in the rush mornings, this recipe is quick to make and also considering you are only making for the kids, it is pretty easy to assemble.

Most times when I need to make a quick tortilla, I use cold butter and crumble well. This is the same dough that I use for my wraps as well. Works very good and I always keep the stuffing simple as with cheese my kids love anything. You may have noticed that I seem to have included cheese a lot. Fact is both Konda and Peddu love cheese, while Konda knows to restrict her intake, Peddu feasts on it and can be said for his age and activity he does, its fine.

However, on the other hand, these dishes were not done within the same week. So its ok to feed your kid all purpose flour and cheese on regular basis.
