1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

1. Once the oil is hot, add 2 cups of sliced mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes until they start to brown.

1. Top with the remaining shredded cheese (about 1/2 cup) and place the second tortilla on top to form a quesadilla.

1. Cook the quesadilla for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.

1. Serve hot with optional sliced bell peppers or jalapeños, salsa, guacamole, or sour cream on the side for dipping, if desired.
