This recipe for Wild Mushroom and Brussels Sprouts Quesadillas is such a perfect one-dish healthy meal for fall, and the leftovers make an awesome lunch!
Ingreadient
- 2 tablespoons butter (+ extra for cooking the quesadillas)
- 2 shallots (diced)
- 8 ounces brussels sprouts (trimmed and thinly sliced)
- 8 ounces mushrooms (thinly sliced (any variety – we enjoyed shiitake in this dish))
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- ½ teaspoon oregano
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 ½ cups Monterey Jack cheese (shredded)
- ½ cup feta cheese (crumbled)
- 8 whole-wheat tortillas (store-bought or homemade
Step by step
- In a large skillet, melt the 2 tablespoons butter over medium-low heat. Add shallots and sliced sprouts to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown, 3 – 5 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms and spices to the pan and cook for another 3 – 5 minutes, until the sprouts are tender when pierced with a fork.
- In a large bowl, combine the two cheeses. Evenly divide the cheeses and filling among four of the tortillas and top with the remaining tortillas.
- For each quesadilla, spread a little butter on top and then flip it over into the skillet set on medium heat (use the same skillet as used for the veggies or a large griddle set on 375° F). Spread a little butter on the top before flipping to cook the other side. Cook both sides until golden brown and the cheese is melted on the inside.
- Serve with sour cream, lime wedges, and fresh cilantro.
