BLT Quesadillas image

This is a bit different from the recipe already on Zaar for BLT quesadillas. this one is a bit fancier, came from the Hartford Courant food section 7/19/2007 - haven't tried it yet but plan to soon. I am not a fan of goat cheese so will try some substitute! I highly recommend microwaving the bacon using Recipe #173076. Cooking time for quesadillas does not include cooking time for bacon.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large flour tortillas (9 inch)
8 ounces soft fresh goat cheese (or other soft, spreadable cheese)
1 teaspoon cumin
1 lb tomatoes, stemmed & sliced 1/4-inch thick
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
8 pieces bacon, cooked until crisp and well drained then cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cups Baby Spinach
olive oil, for grilling

Steps:

  • Place a tortilla on a clean workspace.
  • Mix the cheese & cumin in a mixing bowl until well blended.
  • Using a table knife or small rubber spatula, spread a fourth of the cheese mixture on the tortilla, going almost to the edges.
  • Then arrange a fourth of the tomatoes on one half of the tortilla.
  • Drizzle the tomatoes with 1/2 tsp balsamic vinegar on each tortilla.
  • Lay a fourth of the bacon pieces over the tomatoes, then top with a fourth of the spinach.
  • Fold the tortilla in half and press down gently to secure the filling.
  • Repeat to make three more quesadillas.
  • Heat up your grill (to medium-low), brush the grate with olive oil (while it is still cool or prior to putting on the heat). I would recommend brushing the outside of the tortilla with the olive oil also. (you can also cook them in a skillet at medium heat).
  • When grill is hot, add the quesadillas in a single layer.
  • Using a spatula, press down on the quesadillas, and cook until grill marks appear (or it is lightly browned in a skillet), about two minutes.
  • Carefully turn the quesadillas over and cook until grill marks appear (or lightly browned if using skillet), about 2 minutes more.
  • Remove and cover loosely with foil to keep warm until all quesadillas are cooked.
  • Cut each tortilla into 3 wedges and arrange on a dinner or salad plate.

I'm not a fan of avocado, so I used guacamole instead. It was a great substitute and the quesadillas were still delicious!

These quesadillas were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try using less butter or oil next time.

These quesadillas were delicious! The bacon was crispy, the tomatoes were juicy, and the avocado was creamy. I'll definitely be making them again.

These quesadillas were a bit bland. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.

I'm not a huge fan of tomatoes, so I left them out of my quesadillas. They were still really good!

I made these quesadillas in my air fryer and they were perfect! They were crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside.

These quesadillas were a bit too spicy for me. Next time, I'll use less jalapeƱo peppers.

I'm not a huge fan of bacon, so I used turkey bacon in my quesadillas. They were still really good!

These quesadillas were just okay. The flavors were a bit bland for my taste, and the bacon wasn't as crispy as I would have liked. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I made these quesadillas for a party last weekend and they were a huge hit! Everyone loved them, and I even got a few requests for the recipe. I'll definitely be making them again soon.

Holy moly, these BLT quesadillas were off the hook! The combination of crispy bacon, juicy tomatoes, and creamy avocado was a match made in heaven. The quesadillas were also super easy to make, which is always a bonus in my book.
