Place tortillas on a clean work surface.

Sprinkle half the cheese mixture onto one half of each tortilla. Top with cooked veggies, then sprinkle with remaining cheese mixture. Fold tortillas in half to create quesadillas.

Wash out pan used for veggies. Heat a drizzle of oil in same pan over medium-high heat. Add quesadillas and cook until tortillas are golden brown and cheese melts, 2-4 minutes per side. TIP: Depending on the size of your pan, you may need to work in batches.
Cut quesadillas into wedges and divide between plates. Top with salsa and Southwest crema. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.
