Quesadillas - anyone make them?

I've been experimenting with quesadillas (2 soft tortillas filled with 'stuff' then heated in a frying pan till they are crisp and the filling is hot - a Mexican toastie really) we've had cheese & chutney and cheese & onion and the favourite so far - tuna, cheese & onion, anyone got any more ideas? I've googled it and the recipes are just a bit too American for what were were looking for.

These are a big fav in our house, we've actually got a quesadillia maker (basically a round sandwhich toaster thing - seals the edges nicely).
We have loads of different ones,
Tuna and sweetcorn with tomato sauce
Pepperoni, fried peppers and onions
DD2 loves baked beans and cheese
A thin layer of chilli is nice (especailly with guacamole)
chopped sausage and beans
Fried onions, carrots, celery, peppers and courgette with some seasonings (normally paprika).

Thanks for the inspiration guys :T I get into such a rut sometimes -it's as if I back myself into a corner food wise and need encouragement to get me out. all of the ideas in the links are great but why didn't I think of them?
none are really unusual or extreme .....I dunno, brain paralysis I think....

Hi, don't know if you're still looking for inspiration. We occasionally do pizza toppings in ours (tomato puree, cheese, onions etc). Quick way of doing them.0

Pooky - where did you get this?
We make these quite a lot but I'm rubbish at turning them over to do the other side."You can't get a cup of tea big enough or a book long enough to suit me." - C.S. Lewis0
