Preparation
 
1. Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Cook the ground pork and garlic for about 5 to 7 minutes until there are no traces of pink in the meat. Drain any excess fat; season with salt and pepper to taste.

   2. Combine the pork with the cheeses, scallions, and green chilies. Spread the filling evenly over four tortillas. Top with remaining tortillas to form a quesadilla and press lightly together.
 3. Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat. Lightly coat the pan with cooking spray. Place the quesadilla in a pan andcook for 2 minutes on each side until lightly toasted. Cut into wedges to serve. Serve with sour cream and salsa.
