Sincronizada

 
Wikipedia: Sincronizada

In Mexican cuisine, the sincronizada is a tortilla-based sandwich. They are frequently confused with quesadillas, due to their resemblance to "quesadillas" sold in the United States. (U.S. quesadillas are usually made with flour tortillas rather than molded from masa in the Mexican style).

Sincronizadas (so called because the top and bottom tortilla are "synchronized" together) sandwich ingredients between two tortillas. The sandwich is then grilled. The main difference between the "quesadilla" and the sincronizadas is the inclusion of ham in the product and the ingredient used to make the tortilla ( wheat flour instead of corn flour, masa harina).

Ingredients could vary between Oaxaca Cheese, Manchego Cheese, or Monterey Jack Cheese. In some regions of Mexico it's common to add sour cream giving it a better taste. The Tex-Mex version contains beans, cheese, beef fajitas and avocado.
