Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Eight 6-inch whole wheat tortillas
Cooking spray or olive oil, for oiling tortillas
1 tablespoon spicy brown or Dijon mustard
1 cup shredded low-sodium Swiss (4 ounces)
4 ounces very thinly sliced low-sodium lean Black Forest or Virginia ham
1/2 small red onion, extra thinly sliced
Freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons no-sugar-added apple butter, plus more for topping, optional
2 small apples, cut into thin sticks (red and green)
Lemon juice and ground cinnamon for tossing

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
  • Spray 4 of the tortillas with cooking spray (or brush with olive oil). Lay the oiled tortillas on a large cutting board oiled-side down. Brush with the mustard and sprinkle with about half of the cheese. Top each evenly with a thin layer of ham, onions and some pepper, and then finish with the remaining cheese.
  • Brush the apple butter evenly on the remaining tortillas. Place one apple-butter tortilla on top of a ham-and-cheese tortilla (filling sides in), and firmly press the tortillas together to make a quesadilla.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lay a quesadilla oiled-side down in the pan and cook until golden brown and the cheese starts to melt, about 2 minutes. Spray the top of the quesadilla with cooking spray, turn and cook until the other side browns and the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas.
  • Cut the quesadillas into 4 wedges and arrange on plates. Toss the apples with lemon and juice and cinnamon to taste. Serve with the apple slices.

Provided by Outta Here

Categories     Ham

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3/4 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded
4 (8 inch) tortillas (flour, whole-wheat, spinach or tomato)
3 ounces deli ham, thinly sliced
2/3 cup tomatoes, chopped
2 tablespoons green onions (green tops-sliced)

Steps:

  • Sprinkle cheese onto one half of each tortilla. Top with ham, tomato and green onion tops. Fold each tortilla in half, pressing firmly together.
  • In a 10-inch skillet, cook quesadillas, two at a time, over medium heat for 4 minutes, or until lightly browned, turning once. Repeat with remaining quesadillas.
  • Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for a good quality ham and Swiss cheese, and fresh vegetables.
  • Make sure the tortillas are warm before filling them. This will help them to fold without cracking.
  • Don't overload the quesadillas with filling. This will make them difficult to fold and cook evenly.
  • Cook the quesadillas over medium heat until the cheese is melted and the tortillas are golden brown. Don't overcrowd the pan, or the quesadillas will not cook evenly.
  • Serve the quesadillas immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Ham and Swiss quesadillas are a quick and easy meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover ham and cheese. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
