    Heat coals or gas grill. Place 1 tortilla on 30x12-inch piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Top with one-fourth of the tomato and chiles. Sprinkle with one-fourth of the cheese. Top with another tortilla.
  • 2
    Wrap foil securely around tortillas; pierce top of foil packet once or twice with fork to vent steam. Cover and grill foil packet, seam side up, 4 to 6 inches from medium heat about 15 minutes or until cheese is melted.

  • If desired, prepare these Mexican Quesadillas with lower fat Monterey Jack cheese and lower fat sour cream.
