Jalapeno Popper Quesadillas

Total Time: 17 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 7 mins

Ingredients

  • 8 tortillas
  • 4 -5 slices bacon, chopped and sauteed
  • 4 jalapenos, seeds and ribs removed (fine minced)
  • 4 -6 tablespoons boursin cheese (herb cheese) or 4 -6 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (i prefer a cheddar, but not necessary)
  • olive oil (to brush on the tortillas)
  • salt
  • pepper

Recipe

  • 1 tortillas -- wrap up the 4 of the tortillas in a damp paper towel and heat on medium heat for about 30 seconds. just until they are slightly warm.
  • 2 filling -- top each of the tortillas with 1 tablespoon of the the herb cheese, (i like to use a good herb cheese, but a cream cheese with chives work, or even one with onions and chives. that is all personal preference), top 1/2 (1 side) of the tortilla with 1 of the minced jalapenos, then 1/4 of the bacon, and 1/4 cup of the shredded cheese. season with a pinch of both salt and pepper. fold over the side not filled to make a 1/2 moon shape.
  • 3 grill -- brush each side of the tortilla, with olive oil and either grill, inside or out or bake. they take just a few minutes per side until golden brown and then flip. they don't take long so keep an eye on them. if you use the oven 400 for about 10-12 minutes on a cookie sheet, middle shelf, uncovered. and same thing -- flip half way through the cooking process.
  • 4 serve -- you could serve with sour cream if you want, but for me. nothing is needed. just slice them in wedges and enjoy! cheesy, spicy and creamy.
