Covert Quesadillas

Total Time: 25 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

  • 12 (6 inch) flour whole grain tortillas (or corn tortillas)
  • 1/4-1/2 cup orange puree (my take on sneaky orange puree)
  • 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded (or 12 slices american cheese)
  • 6 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil

Recipe

  • 1 place all 12 tortillas on a work surface and spread 1-2 teaspoons of orange puree on each and every tortilla, being careful to keep puree away from the edges(leave about 1" border so that it doesn't ooze out during cooking).
  • 2 add about 1/2 cup shredded cheese(or 2 cheese slices) to the center of only 6 of the tortillas and cover with the remaining tortillas to make 6 sandwiches.
  • 3 heat 1 teaspoons of the oil in a skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking. place one quesadilla in the heated skillet and cook until the underside is lightly browned and cheese melts, about 2-3 minutes. gently flip quesadilla and cook until the other side is golden, another 2-3 minutes. add another teaspoon of oil and repeat with each of the remaining quesadillas.
  • 4 stack finished quesadillas on a plate with a paper towel between each sandwich to absorb excess oil. allow to cool for a few mintues, then cut each sandwich into 4 triangles.
