I find that quesadillas are a great way to “clean out the fridge” by using up leftover cooked meats, bits of cheese, sauces and chutneys. Am I the only one with about 30 different condiments on the inside of my fridge door! David often asks me (in a less than friendly manner) just how many different red pepper jellies does one really need? 8220;...
