Vegetable & Cheese Quesadillas
Don’t be alarmed these are the healthy version to the once oh so bad for you fast food. It’s ok if right about now you want to do a little dance, make a little love and pretty much get down tonight. hahaha
Ok ok back to business. I made them on Spelt tortillas!!! And wait, hold the excitement they are filled with veggies and mozzarella cheese shreds! With a little salsa and these bad boys are off the heezy. They are especially good with a nice side of guacamole.
Ingredients
1-2 bags of frozen mixed veggies
(green peppers, yellow onion, corn, carrots, green beans and peas.)
Salt/Pepper to taste
1 c mozzarella shreds (vegan or non vegan your choice)
Salsa, vegan sour cream and guacamole for sides
Guacamole
2 ripe avocados mashed
1 garlic clove sliced thin
a squeeze of lime juice
1/4 yellow onion, diced
1 tomato, diced
Salt/Pepper to taste
Handful of fresh cilantro
Method
The Quesadillas
- Steam your veggies then lightly water sauté them adding in all seasonings. I just used salt and pepper but you can add whatever you’d like.
- Heat up tortillas on a fry pan about 2-3 minutes for each side.
- Place your veggies and a scoop of cheese to the heated tortilla and fold over like you would an omelet.
- Flip a few times so both sides get nice and crispy.
The Guacamole
- In a blender add all ingredients and run until just combined. You can make it completely smooth and creamy but I like my guac with chunks of avo and tomatoes.
- If you do not have a blender you can simply smash the avocados with a fork add in all ingredients and mix until just combined. Add more of any ingredient as desired.
*Note: When I make guacamole I go by taste. So you may add or remove anything you like and make this traditional recipe your own!
