Tried TaDa's quesadilla trick!

jodieleigh · 10-19-2011, 01:18 PM

TaDa, I tried your trick last night of ordering a vegetarian quesadilla at a restaurant, and a salad. I scraped out the insides of the quesadilla onto my salad and threw away the tortilla. Then I added some sour cream and salsa.

I got some funny looks from the waitress, but oh well, it worked perfectly!

Great idea TaDa!

You just have to make sure to do it as soon as it comes to the table, otherwise it's hard to get all the cheese out.

lol! That was totally an emergency order for me at a local restaurant that literally had nothing else vegetarian and lc to eat, lol!!! You are so right though .. the quesadilla must be hotttttt, lol!

Actually one of my favorite orders at a mexican restaurant is either a fajita salad (fajita toppings on a salad - so fried green peppers and onions then top with sour cream, guacamole and cheddar cheese) or, an order of vegetarian fajitas .. just ask for it with no tortilla, rice or beans, and order your own side salad to dump it on ..

I think restaurants are the toughest part for lc vegetarians!!!!!
