Time 10m

Yield Two quesadillas

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 6-ounce bag baby spinach or 1 bunch spinach, stemmed
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 to 2 garlic cloves to taste, minced
Salt
freshly ground pepper
4 corn tortillas
2 ounces goat cheese, crumbled 1/2 cup

Steps:

  • Wash the spinach but do not dry. If using bunch spinach, chop coarsely. Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy frying pan. Add the garlic. Cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds, then stir in the spinach. Raise the heat, and stir just until the spinach wilts. Remove from the heat. Press down on the spinach with the back of your spoon, and drain off any water in the pan. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • In a microwave: Place a corn tortilla on a plate. Top with half the spinach, and spread in an even layer. Sprinkle on half the cheese, and top with another tortilla. Press down gently, then microwave for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Remove from the microwave, cut into quarters or sixths, and serve. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  • In a pan: Place a corn tortilla in the pan. Top with half the spinach, and spread in an even layer. Sprinkle on half the cheese. Turn the heat to medium-high, and heat until the cheese begins to melt. Place another tortilla on top of the cheese, and press down lightly. Flip the quesadilla over in the pan, and heat for about 30 seconds or until the cheese has melted. Flip back over, and remove to a plate. Cut into quarters or sixths, and serve.

Provided by Robin Donovan

Categories     Tomato     Vegetarian     Quick & Easy     Father's Day     Goat Cheese     Summer     Tortillas

Yield Serves 8 to 10 as an appetizer, 4 to 6 as an entrée

Number Of Ingredients 4

Olive oil spray or nonstick cooking spray
8 10-inch flour tortillas
12 ounces soft fresh goat cheese, crumbled (about 1 1/2 cups)
Tomato and Corn Salsaepi:recipelink

Steps:

  • Grill Method:
  • Spray one side of a tortilla with oil and place it, oiled side down, on the grill over medium-high heat. Top with one-quarter (about 3 ounces) of the cheese and one-quarter of the salsa. Spray one side of a second tortilla with oil, and place it on top of the first, oiled side up. Cook, about 3 minutes, until the bottom tortilla is golden brown. Turn the quesadilla over and continue cooking, about 3 minutes more, until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Remove from the grill and cut into wedges. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, cheese, and salsa. Serve immediately.
  • Camp Stove Method:
  • Spray a large skillet with oil and warm over medium-high heat on the stove. Place 1 tortilla in the hot skillet, and top with one-quarter (about 3 ounces) of the cheese and one-quarter of the salsa. Top with a second tortilla. Cook, about 3 minutes, until the bottom tortilla is golden brown. Turn the quesadilla over and continue cooking, about 3 minutes more, until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Remove from the skillet and cut into wedges. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, cheese, and salsa. Serve immediately.
  • Make It at Home:
  • Make it a meal by adding broiled shrimp. Preheat the broiler. Spread 1 pound of peeled shrimp in a single layer on a baking sheet, spray with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Broil, about 2 minutes, until the shrimp is cooked through. Split each shrimp in half lengthwise. Continue with preparation per the camp-stove method. Add 1/4 cup of the shrimp to each quesadilla along with the cheese and salsa.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe mangoes for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can cook the quesadillas in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Be careful not to overcook the quesadillas, or the cheese will become rubbery.
  • Serve the quesadillas immediately with your favorite toppings, such as guacamole, salsa, or sour cream.
  • To make ahead, cook the quesadillas according to the recipe and then let them cool completely. Store the quesadillas in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. When ready to serve, reheat the quesadillas in a skillet or oven until warmed through.

Conclusion:

These goat cheese and mango quesadillas are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a summer party or a quick weeknight meal. With their sweet and tangy flavor, these quesadillas are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
