Ingredients

  • 0.5 cup salsa 
  • 0.5 cup cup heavy whipping cream sour
  • 0.5 lb swiss cheese shredded

Equipment

  • bowl
  • baking sheet

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, mix salsa and sour cream.
  2. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of the cheese over half of 1 tortilla. Then place 3/4 cup coleslaw mix on cheese.
  3. Drizzle about 3 tablespoons of the salsa mixture over coleslaw.
  4. Lay 1/4 of the corned beef onto coleslaw; top with 1/4 cup more cheese. Fold tortilla over to cover filling. Repeat to make 3 more quesadillas.
