Meatless Monday recipe of the week: Apple-icious Breakfast Quesadilla
I don’t see any reason why this simple quesadilla can’t be had for dinner just as easily as for breakfast. Have this on the side of any meat-free Thanksgiving leftovers, or just make a simple side salad, and you’ve got a quick and tasty meal.
Apple-icious Breakfast Quesadilla
2 6-inch flour tortillas
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup shredded reduced-fat Monterey jack cheese
2 tablespoons low-fat sour cream
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (or to taste)
2 teaspoons honey (or maple syrup) (optional)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Place one whole wheat flour tortilla on an ungreased baking sheet. Spread half of the applesauce over tortilla; reserve half for garnish. Sprinkle half of cinnamon over applesauce. Top with cheese and second tortilla. Sprinkle remaining cinnamon on top.
Bake at 400 degrees for 6 to 8 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 2 minutes.
Cut into quarters and serve with reserved applesauce and sour cream. Add honey or maple syrup to these garnishes (or mix in more cinnamon) if desired. Serves 2.
