14yo asked for a chicken quesadilla for dinner but without cheese. So it was just pieces of cooked chicken and sautéed veggies tumbling out of a folded tortilla. I was cheerful on the outside but inside I was making this face 😐

Wait so does that make it a taco, burrito or fajita?

That is a taco. If you wrap the tortilla, it is a burrito.

:-( It's not the same unless there's something sticking everything together. Still good, but in a wrong sort of way.

That’s pretty much what I said - “how is it going to stick together?” He was happy, though, so I guess that’s all that matters

I told my daughter if she doesn't like cheese that she can't have mac and cheese, cheetos, cheezits, goldfish, cheesecake, etc. She was so shocked lol. This was bc she asked for lunchables pizza w only sauce and no cheese. I was like 😭💀

Try mashing up some black beans or use refried beans to keep that texture and stuff falling out.

Rich beat me to it. The "do quesadillas require cheese" is perennial debate in Mexico (Mexico City: no, everyone else yes). It seems you joined team yes.

Will for sure inform my kid about this. He will no doubt be thrilled that Mexico City is on his side lol

Before vegan cheese came on the scene, we'd put refried black beans in our quesadillas. We told ourselves it was delicious. 😂😂

A very small Kid2 once asked for plain oatmeal rather than a grilled cheese and that was my face. Along with real concern the hospital must have switched the bassinets and my cheese kid was stuck with an oatmeal family somewhere. Maybe kids do this to prank us? So funny and so confusing.

Hahahaha I can extremely relate. Especially since cheese is one of my top 3 favourite foods. Like you said … could they have been switched at birth?? It seems like the only plausible explanation
aug 23, 2025, 4:45 am • 4 0 • view
How could I have possibly given birth to someone who can live without cheese? Unless God has a real love of practical jokes and miraculously messed with our DNA?

Ah, I got the inverse, they only like cheese quesadillas, but not melted. So it's just a cold tortilla with shredded cheddar cheese in the middle. Can't speak to how well I hide it, but this is certainly how it makes me feel.

Hey, when a 14 year old wants protein and veggies, sounds like a win to me! I'm allergic to cheese, so my quesadilla would be minus the queso too. You're a good mom.

I've got picky kids and I'm happy to share that spreading a thin layer of refried beans will stick it all together.

My 7yo grandson doesn’t like cheese on his pizza. When his older sister said she was going to Italy with me and that we would eat real Italian pizza and some Don’t have cheese. He yelled at her “those are my people” LOL. So your son is in good company.

Reminds me of when I was vegan for a short while, and I ordered a veggie pizza without cheese, not realising cheese's adhesive quality, so what I ended up with was a circle of dough and a motorway pile-up of vegetables in the corner.

Technically, it’s still a quesadilla….CDMX has quesadillas without cheese. Yes, it’s polarizing.
