Today’s Black and Bleu Quesadillas is one of those recipes that when you try it you think, “Why didn’t I ever think of that?” I can’t take all the credit though, I was flipping through a cookbook and came across a black and bleu salad with roast beef and bleu cheese. For some reason it stuck in my head and I decided to morph it into a quesadilla. So, here it is. And you are going to love it…
