    noun
    Plural of quesadilla.

    The food truck sells grilled quesadillas stuffed with chicken and peppers.

    She folded two quesadillas onto the hot griddle and waited for the cheese to melt.

    Note

    A plural that gives English speakers nothing to stumble over: the borrowing from Spanish ends in a vowel, so Spanish and English agree on simply adding -s. Each quesadilla is one filled tortilla cooked until the cheese melts, so the plural counts the tortillas themselves, as in a plate of quesadillas. Avoid an extra -es or an apostrophe, since quesadilla's belongs only to the possessive.
