Blooming Quesadilla Ring

Assemble the Quesadilla Ring:
Cut each flour tortilla into quarters, resulting in 16 triangle-shaped pieces.
Place a spoonful of the filling onto the wide end of each tortilla triangle.
Roll each triangle from the wide end towards the point, encasing the filling, and arrange them in a circular pattern on the prepared baking sheet, with the points facing inward and slightly overlapping each other to form a ring.
Brush with Butter:
Brush the tops of the rolled tortilla pieces with melted butter to help them turn golden brown and crispy while baking.
Bake the Quesadilla Ring:
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve:
Carefully transfer the blooming quesadilla ring to a serving platter. Place bowls of salsa, sour cream, and guacamole in the center of the ring for dipping.
