The Fastest Quesadilla North of the Border


This is a 3 ingredient 5 minute recipe. I packed it in aluminum foil to go the other day and it worked great; it stayed warm and didn't get soggy during the 45 minutes it was packed. Serve with Trader Joe's guacamole. Yum! Crunchy and gooey and very satisfying. Yes, that's a vegetable in there!

Ingredients:
  • 1 package whole wheat tortillas (Trader Joe's brand shown)
  • 1 bag no rBST (Recombinant Bovine Somatotropin aka growth hormone) shredded Lite Mexican Blend cheese (Trader Joe's)
  • 1 package Trader Joe's Organic broccoli slaw.

Preparation Per 2 Servings:

  1. Preheat cast iron or other 10" heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat.
  2. When hot, lay one tortilla in pan, sprinkle with shredded cheese to barely cover, sprinkle a layer of broccoli slaw on top and then another layer of shredded cheese. Top with another tortilla and cook until crisp and golden on the bottom.
  3. Slip a large spatula under the quesadilla, place the palm of the free hand on top of the quesadilla to help balance it and keep it together, and flip it over to cook on the other side. Remove when crisp and golden.
  4. Remove from heat and place on cutting board. Allow to cool for at least 30 seconds and then slice into wedges.
  5. Serve with Trader Joe's guacamole or avocados cut in wedges.

Enjoy!
