Paneer and corn quesadillas, serve this dinner-time treat to your kids, to see their day end in a fun way! given a choice, your little ones would freak out on corn, but its poor protein quality makes it a not-so-healthy option. However, adding paneer and mozzarella cheese increases the protein quotient of the quesadillas.

Tried out today morning for breakfast and this turned out to be excellent.I was short of yellow and red capsicum so replaced it with carrots and beet root.Ichopped paneer finely and mixed the rest of the ingredients and this gave a very good taste.
