Ingredients

• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 2 large flour tortillas
• 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
• 1 cup frozen roasted corn, thawed
• 1/2 cup crumbled Cojita
• 1/2 small avocado, diced
• 2 tablespoons chopped jarred jalapenos
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 teaspoon ancho chile powder
• 1/4 cup jarred salsa, for serving
• 1/4 cup jarred salsa verde, for serving
• Tortilla chips, for serving

Directions

1. Place a skillet over medium heat.

2. Spread half of the mayonnaise on one of the tortillas and place in the hot skillet mayonnaise-side down.

3. Top with half of the Monterey Jack. Add the corn, Cojita, avocado, jalapenos and cilantro. Sprinkle over the ancho chile powder and remaining Monterey Jack.
