Johns Vegetarian Quesadillas Recipes

Steps:

• Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Add zucchini, squash, and onion; cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add garlic. Continue cooking until vegetables are tender, about 2 minutes more.
• Spread a scant 1/4 cup refried beans over each tortilla. Set 4 tortillas aside to be the tops of the quesadillas. Spoon 1/4 of the vegetable mixture over the remaining 4 tortillas. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons Cheddar cheese over the vegetables. Cover with the reserved tortillas, bean-side down.
• Wipe skillet out with a paper towel. Heat oil in the skillet over low heat. Add 1 quesadilla. Cook until browned and heated through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining quesadillas. Serve each quesadilla with 1/4 cup salsa.

Steps:

• In a large nonstick pan, cook red pepper, zucchini, yellow squash, onion, and mushrooms in olive oil over medium to medium-high heat for about 7 minutes, or until just tender. Remove vegetables from pan.
• Coat the same pan with cooking spray, and place one tortilla in pan. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of cheese evenly over tortilla, and layer 3/4 cup of the vegetable mixture over the cheese. Sprinkle another 1/8 cup of cheese on the vegetables, and top with a second tortilla. Cook until golden on both sides, for approximately 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove quesadilla from pan, and repeat with remaining ingredients. Cut each quesadilla into 8 triangles with a pizza cutter. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Begin by grilling chopped chicken breasts in separate pan.
• Grill until meat is white on the inside.
• Use one tbsp of butter to sauté.
• While grilling chicken, chop pepper and onion into small pieces (add jalapeño if desired) Once chicken is white on the inside add the vegetables.
• Grill these with the chicken until they are browned.
• While grilling the vegetables, put a separate pan on medium heat with one tbsp of olive oil for the actual preparation of the quesadillas.
• After vegetables are done grilling, place one tortilla in the pan and top with 1/2 cup of shredded cheese and half of the chicken veggie mix.
• Place another tortilla on top of this and grill until the bottom tortilla is browned and the cheese is beginning to melt, then flip.
• Repeat step 6 on the other side once the other side is browned and cheese is melted the quesadilla is ready for serving.
• Cut into wedges and garnish with sour cream and your favorite salsa.

Steps:

• In a large, non stick, fry pan lightly sprayed with oil stir fry the broccoli, cauliflower and jalapeños for approx 7 minutes.
• Add onions continue cooking for 5 minutes.
• Add tomatoes cook for a further 5 minutes, turning the vegetables all the while.
• Over low heat add a 1/2 tsp of butter or margarine to another pan heat one side of a tortilla, flip the tortilla over and put 3/4 cup of the veggie filling and 3/4 cup of cheese, fold over the tortilla to cover the filling, fry for a minute or so then flip to the other side and continue to fry until the cheese has melted--just a minute or so.
• Serve immediately with salsa and avocado slices with a little lemon squeezed over them.
