Veggie and Chorizo Quesadillas image

Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounces Mexican chorizo
1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 cups fresh spinach
8 flour tortillas (about 7 inches in diameter)
8 ounces shredded Mexican cheese blend
1 tablespoon butter
Salsa, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring, until aromatic and browned, about 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and add the bell pepper. Cook, stirring, until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Add the spinach and toss until wilted. Cool slightly.
  • Lay out 4 of the tortillas and sprinkle with half of the cheese (about 1/4 cup per tortilla). Divide the chorizo mixture among them, then sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Top with the remaining tortillas.
  • Wipe the skillet clean and melt the butter over medium-high heat. Carefully transfer 2 of the quesadillas to the skillet and cook, flipping once, until golden brown and melty, about 3 minutes per side; transfer to a cutting board. Cook the remaining 2 quesadillas. Cut each into 4 pieces and serve with salsa.

Overall, I really enjoyed these quesadillas. They were easy to make, flavorful, and a great way to use up leftover vegetables.

These quesadillas were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra seasoning next time.

I'm not a fan of bell peppers, so I omitted them from the recipe. The quesadillas were still delicious.

I had some leftover chicken, so I added it to the quesadillas. It was a great way to use up leftovers.

These quesadillas were a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed them.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used tofu instead of chorizo. The quesadillas were still delicious!

These quesadillas were easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought chorizo and it worked perfectly.

I'm not a big fan of chorizo, but I really enjoyed these quesadillas. The flavors were well-balanced and the cheese was gooey and melted perfectly.

These quesadillas were a hit with my family! The combination of veggies and chorizo was perfect, and the cheese melted beautifully. I will definitely be making these again.
