Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup chopped dried apricots
1/4 cup seedless raisins
1 tsp grated fresh orange peel
6 tbsp orange juice
1 container (15 oz.) part-skim milk ricotta or low fat
cottage cheese
6 tbsp honey
1 tsp ground coriander or 1/2 tsp curry powder
12 burrito-size flour tortillas
2 cups chopped fresh dole tropical gold
pineapple, well-drained
1-1/2 cups chopped mango
mint sprigs

Directions:

Combine apricots, raisins, orange peel, and orange juice. Let stand until apricots and raisins are softened (about 10 minutes).
Combine apricot-raisin-juice mixture, ricotta cheese, honey, and coriander in blender or food processor container. Cover; blend until smooth.
Arrange 6 tortillas in a single layer on 2 or 3 lightly oiled large baking sheets. Spread tortillas evenly with cheese mixture, covering tortillas to within 1/2 inch of edges. Evenly cover cheese mixture with pineapple and mangos, then top each tortilla with one of the remaining tortillas. Press lightly.
Bake at 400ºF., 8 to 10 minutes or until tortillas are lightly browned, changing positions of baking sheets halfway through baking for even browning.
Slide quesadillas onto cutting board and cut each into 4-6 wedges. Arrange on a platter and garnish with mint sprigs, if desired.
