Notes
The cayenne can be adjusted to your preference, and the hot sauce is totally optional! Start small and add as you like.
Use this as a layer inside of quesadillas, as a flatbread base, or as a side. It's very versatile.
I didn't find a need for salt and pepper, but always add some if you feel it needs it!
