Quesadillas North of 60
This is actually really easy to make and you can customize the quesadillas to individual tastes.
INGREDIENTS PER QUESADILLAS:
- soft tortilla - the bigger ones - they would fit into your frying pan
- a very small handful of cooked diced chicken or finely sliced steak
- grated mozzarella cheese (about a handful or two depending on how cheesy you like it) - chedar will do in a pinch
- 4 - 6 finely chopped capers if so desired
- steamed brocolli and/or cauliflower (about a handful altogether)
- drizzle of olive oil for the fry pan for each quesadilla
- jar of salsa and/or sour cream for toppings
PREPARATION:
- heat the fry pan and the olive oil (not too hot) and then brown one side of the soft tortilla
- once the one side is golden brown, turn it over and put your ingredients onto half of the tortilla (proporations will depend upon what you like, but make sure not to get the ingredients too close to the edges - otherwise, it is messy to clean up and hard to turn over)
- fold the other half over top of the mixture and let the whole thing brown on the bottomĀ (about 2 - 3 minutes)
- turn the entire tortilla over and let that second side brown as well.
Variations include using finely sliced peppers, onions, crumbled feta cheese, left over turkey etc…
