Lazy Leftovers


As you know, last night I had a TON of the stuffing mixture leftover from my stuffed peppers. Well in an effort to reduce waste and retain money...I'm remaking them into lunch today.

Since it's a mix of meat, beans, corn, rice and salsa I naturally decided to go with a Mexican theme and decided to make quesadillas. Quick and easy...my kind of meal.

1 cup of leftover stuffing mixture
1/2 cup shredded cheese
1/4 cup sliced onion
1/4 cup crushed chips (tortilla, doritos...whatever you have to add a little crunch)
2 large flour tortillas
cooking spray

Spray a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat.

Add first tortilla to the skillet. Layer 1/2 of the shredded cheese followed by the mixture, onions and remainder of the cheese. Top with the other tortilla.

Once the bottom is browned, flip...do so carefully...if you need to, use two spatulas.

Brown the other side and slide out of the skillet and onto a plate...cut into wedges.

Serve with whatever toppings you like on your quesadillas...salsa, sour cream, fresh veggies...the list goes on...
