How do you make low calorie quesadillas?

[Anonymous]

I'm trying to lose weight and almost everyday I eat homemade quesadillas.

I sprinkle on some sharp cheddar, red pepper, and mushrooms, on white tortillas.

is yellow sharp cheddar fattening? and is white tortilla fattening?

what are some suggestions for low calorie snacking ideas?

If you want a low calorie quesadilla, you get rid of the tortilla and the cheese. What does that leave you with? Not much.

Try an egg white omelet with fat-free mozarella and all the peppers and mushrooms you want. You can buy egg whites in a carton.

lol, so you're saying there is no such thing as a low calorie quesadilla. that's what I thought.

i do ear egg white omelettes from time to time.

Cutting those blocks of cheese into strips and putting it on a corn tortilla while it cooks on the stove.

I love quesadillas too, but they aren't good for trying to lose wieght if you still want it to taste the same. If you want to lose weight you need to stay from any type of tortilla and breads.

really? oh darn :(

i love carbs! especially around that time of the month

lol I would stay away from the white bread and tortillas mostly. try changing the kind of tortialla and a low fat cheese, eat them less, cut down to a couple days a week in stead of everyday.

If you're trying to loose weight then I highly suggest you cut out the cheese. Use veggies, mushrooms, and use either corn tortillas or whole wheat ones.

use wheat tortillas instead of white. It is better for losing weight

Use whole wheat tortillas & reduced fat cheese.

I love quesadillas in the microwave. :)
