Cranberry-Turkey Quesadillas

 From: Pillsbury Annual Recipes 2007 cookbook


Ingredients:

  • 1 package burrito tortillas
  • 3 cups shredded pepper Jack cheese (12 oz)
  • 6 oz smoked cooked turkey, chopped
  • 1/2 cup sweetened dried cranberries
  • 2 Tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Heat oven to 400 degrees. On ungreased large cookie sheet, place 4 of the tortillas. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of the cheese over each tortilla. Top each evenly with turkey and cranberries. Sprinkle 1/4 cup remaining cheese over each. Top with remaining tortillas.

In small bowl, milk melted butter and parsley. Brush butter mixture over tops of filled tortillas. Bake 6 to 8 minutes or until cheese is melted and edges begin to turn light golden brown. Cut into wedges; serve warm.



Verdict: Thumbs up! Oh man... these were so tasty! What a great combination of flavors! What I did differently: Well, as I was typing this recipe up, I realized I never brushed the tops with the butter and parsley mixture! Hah! I'm sure that would have been good, but these were great anyway. I also made some of them with mozzarella cheese in case the Bible study girls didn't care for spicy foods.
