This recipe is not using a Thermomix, but is so easily converted to Thermo that you should really give it a go. (Except for the charred corn bit, and well, the cooking of the quesadillas bit...so basically, just the filling bit!)
Of course, if you like the occasional knife and a some flames, go all out and follow the recipe as is. (But I confess, I did use the Thermomix for the prep work at least!) I'm not silly after all!
