Minicheesequesadillas Recipes

Steps:

• Place 1 flour tortilla on a large microwave-safe plate; sprinkle with Cheddar cheese. Place the second flour tortilla atop the Cheddar layer.
• Cook on high in the microwave until cheese is melted, about 1 minute.

Steps:

• Combine chili powder, cumin, salt and oregano in large plastic food storage bag. Add Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese and shake to coat cheese.
• Heat 1/2 tablespoon oil in medium skillet. Place one tortilla in pan and top with 1/2 cup cheese mixture; top with a second tortilla. Cook 30 seconds, turn; cook 30 seconds longer.
• Repeat with additional oil, remaining tortillas and cheese mixture. Cut each quesadilla into 8 wedges. Serve with salsa and sour cream.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a 12-inch cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add the peppers, onion and zucchini. Season with the smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Toss to coat with the oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and browning, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the garlic and oregano and stir to combine. Cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat.
• Heat a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Grease the pan with the cooking spray. Carefully place a tortilla in the hot pan. Add 3 tablespoons cheese to half of the tortilla, spreading the cheese to the edges and allowing some to spill over to create a cheesy crust. Top with a hearty spoonful of the cooked pepper mixture, then top with another 3 tablespoons cheese. Fold the bare half of the tortilla over the cheese and pepper filling. Press down to flatten with a spatula. Cook until the cheese is melted and crusty and the tortilla is browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a serving platter. Season with salt and a squeeze of lime. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, peppers and cheese, wiping down the pan as needed. Serve with sour cream and salsa for dipping, if desired.

Steps:

• Lay out 3 tortillas on a cutting board. Combine the cheddar and Monterey Jack in a small bowl. Spread a third of the cheese on each tortilla, leaving a 1-inch edge. Place the remaining 3 tortillas on top.
• Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in a 12-inch omelet pan set over medium heat, and add one filled tortilla. Cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip with a spatula, and add another 1/2 tablespoon butter. Cook until browned and cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
• Cut cooked tortillas into eighths; serve immediately with salsa, if desired.
