Ingredients

½  package Nuts for Cheese Chipotle Cheddar or other clean non-dairy cheddar cheese, grated and divided

1 large zucchini, grated and divided

2 Siete Burrito-sized tortillas

Description

Quesadillas can be so much more than just a tortilla and cheese. These satisfying triangles are stuffed with better-for-you ingredients (like water-rich zucchini) that not only taste good, but make you feel good. Enjoy!

Method

  1. Prepare “Chorizo” according to package instructions. 

  2. Place one tortilla in a wide skillet over medium heat. Layer one quarter of the cheese on half of the tortilla, followed by ⅓ cup “Chorizo” and ½ of the grated zucchini, then another quarter of the grated cheese. Fold the plain half of the tortilla over the toppings. 

  3. Cook until the bottom begins to brown then very carefully flip. Continue to cook until cheese has melted.

  4. Remove from heat and cut into triangles. Repeat steps 2-3 with the remaining tortilla and ingredients.

  5. Top or serve garnishes on the side.
