Notes
- Please note I am not claiming these are authentic quesadillas or pico de gallo recipes, they are inspired by Mexican cuisine.
- In the pico de gallo, I used lemon juice because I did not have limes.
- The pico de gallo is spicy if you want it to be less spicy use less jalapeño.
- Feel free to serve with guacamole, vegan sour cream, or anything else you like.
- To reheat either place in microwave, pan, oven or air fryer.
