Crispy Chorizo & Cheese Taco-Quesadillas With Simple Salsa

Cheese makes everything better! These cheesy griddled queso-tacos are going to be your new go-to recipe for any time of the week. This is a perfect recipe for substituting any protein or vegetable in place of the chorizo. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do. You can buy chorizo or make your own by mixing together the spices and ground pork. Either will work great in this recipe! If you haven't had a habanada pepper, try one–they will change your life. Check out your local farmers’ market and make this salsa this weekend.
