Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups 1 1/2-inch cubes peeled seeded sugar pumpkin or butternut squash (from about half a 2-pound whole pumpkin)
1 finely chopped seeded jalapeño (about 2 tablespoons)
12 8-inch-diameter flour tortillas
10 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
2 limes, each cut into 6 wedges

Steps:

  • Cook pumpkin in large saucepan of boiling salted water until tender but not falling apart, about 10 minutes. Drain and cool 10 minutes. While pumpkin is still warm, transfer to processor; puree until smooth. Stir in jalapeño; season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide pumpkin mixture equally among 6 tortillas (about 1/4 cup per tortilla) and spread evenly. Sprinkle feta over each. Top each with 1/4 cup cilantro and sprinkle with black pepper. Top with second tortilla.
  • Heat heavy large skillet over mediumhigh heat. Cook quesadillas until golden and dark char marks appear, about 1 minute per side. Serve with lime wedges.

I'm not a big fan of pumpkin, but these quesadillas were surprisingly good.

I made these quesadillas for my kids and they loved them. They are a great way to get kids to eat their vegetables.

I added some chopped walnuts to the quesadillas and they were delicious. It added a nice nutty flavor.

I used a different type of cheese and it turned out great. I think any type of cheese would work well in these quesadillas.

The quesadillas were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would use less oil next time.

I thought the quesadillas were a bit bland. I added some extra spices and they were much better.

These quesadillas were a hit! The combination of sweet pumpkin, salty feta, and tangy cilantro was perfect.
