Cooking: 15 minutes
4 20 cm (8 in) soft corn tortillas
8 slices
(18g/.6oz per slice) Armstrong extra aged white
cheddar cheese
2 avocados, peeled, pitted, sliced
1 red pepper, sliced thinly
100 g (250 ml/1 cup) corn kernels
15 ml (1 tbsp) fresh oregano, chopped
To taste salt and freshly ground pepper
To taste Dairyland sour cream
To taste mild salsa and/or tomatillo sauce
To taste hot sauce
Place 4 tortillas on a large work surface. Place 2 slices of extra aged white cheddar cheese on each tortilla and top with the avocado, red pepper and corn, dividing the ingredients equally among the tortillas.
Sprinkle tortillas with oregano, salt and pepper. Cover with remaining tortillas and press down gently.
Heat a lightly oiled cast iron pan on medium heat. Place one quesadilla in the pan and cook on both sides until tortillas are dark golden in patches and cheese is melted. Repeat with remaining quesadillas, taking care not to burn them.
Cut each quesadilla in four and serve immediately with condiments.
Kids love quesadillas, no matter what’s in them. We recommend slipping in some red or black beans with the vegetables. The soft melted cheese and the crispy tortillas will make a fan out of everyone in your family.
