Summer Harvest Quesadilla

This is such a yummy recipe that uses a few of our favorite summer veggies – zucchini and corn. If you have a backyard garden, you probably have lots of zucchini growing. This is the perfect recipe for using it up. Use a whole wheat tortilla for added fiber and nutrients.  Enjoy this fool-proof dinner!
