Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all ingredients: tortillas, shredded cheddar cheese, olive oil, salsa, and sour cream.
Heat the Pan
Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, allowing it to warm up.
Assemble the Quesadilla
Place one tortilla in the heated pan. Evenly sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the tortilla, then top with another tortilla.
