Time 25m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 7

½ medium sweet potato
¼ cup chopped pecans
1 pinch ground nutmeg
1 flour tortilla
½ cup chopped red onion
¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
1 teaspoon vegetable oil, or as needed

Steps:

  • Poke holes into the sweet potato and microwave on high until soft throughout when poked with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes. Let cool before peeling, at least 10 minutes.
  • Peel sweet potato and mash flesh in a bowl. Stir in pecans and nutmeg. Spread mixture over half of the tortilla. Sprinkle onion and feta cheese over the filling.
  • Fold tortilla in half and press edges together to prevent filling from spilling out.
  • Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Cook quesadilla until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and cut into wedges.
