Notes
Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor, especially when it comes to the cheese. Experiment with different types of cheese or add other fillings like cooked chicken, beans, or vegetables for a heartier quesadilla. Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary to ensure even cooking. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheated in the air fryer to restore crispiness.
