Ingredients
  • ½ small zucchini
  • ¼ sweet white onion
  • 2 small whole wheat tortillas
  • 1 ounce cabra al vino cheese
  • Toppings: guacamole, salsa, tomato, cilantro
Instructions
  1. Thinly slice zucchini and cut each round in half. Dice the onion.
  2. In a pan on medium heat, cook the zucchini and onion together with a bit of salt and pepper until they begin to soften and brown (about 5 minutes). Remove from the heat.
  3. Oil the pan (or use spray) and place one tortilla down. Crumble half the cheese on top of it, layer the veggies on top of the cheese, and then crumble the additional cheese on top. Push the other tortilla down on top.
  4. Cook the tortilla on one side for about 3 minutes, and then flip and cook it on its other side for about 2 minutes. It should be browning nicely and crisping up.
  5. Slice the quesadilla into quarters and serve with guacamole, salsa, tomato, and cilantro.
