Tastefully Tuesday - BBQ Quesadilla

See those ingredients? Add a Misto filled with olive oil (probably the only thing healthy about this dinner, but I'm sure Dawn has a healthy version to share in the comments below) and it's so yummy, your kids will be asking for seconds.


Directions:

1. Heat oil in a frying pan on top of the stove. Be careful not to have the heat so high that it scorches, lest your quesadilla have a burned flavor.
2. Place one small flour tortilla in the pan. Quickly spoon on 3 - 4 tablespoons of BBQ and a sprinkle of shredded cheese. The finer the shred, the more gooey it gets which helps the tortillas to stick together better. Keep the outer 3/4" to 1" of the diameter of the tortilla free of cheese and BBQ because it will spread out a little.
3. Quickly top with another tortilla and wait until the bottom begins to crisp with a golden brown color without scorching. (Which is why the Fireman cooks this mean, but I digress.) Use a metal spatula to check for goldeny-brownness.
4. Use the biggest spatula you have to quickly flip the quesadilla. Be careful not to mash or smoosh it. This might take some practice. The messed up ones taste just as good as the regular ones, but in the event that your family won't eat them, chocolate labs will. Those dogs are like goats in constitution.
5. When the other side is ready, again use your spatula to flip it but this time flip it right onto a plate.
6. Top with cole slaw, sour cream, etc. of choice.

We had these Sunday night due to the fact that nothing else in the fridge and pantry were teaming up to be a viable dinner option. We frequently eat cheeseburger quesadillas, so figured it couldn't be that terrible an idea to try the BBQ instead. It turned out really yummy.

So now it's your turn. What was your tastiest meal this week? Do you have a favorite quesadilla recipe to share? I'd love to hear about it in the comments section below!
