This got raves from our Thanksgiving houseguest! He and my husband ate these up and insisted that I write down the recipe, so here it is. Great way to use up leftover turkey. I served this as lunch, but the individual wedges would make a wonderful pick-up appetizer! Ingredients:
1/2 lb leftover roast turkey, sliced |
1 large avocado, sliced |
1 1/2 cups hot monterey jack pepper cheese, shredded |
1 small yellow onion, sliced thin |
1/2 cup green bell pepper, diced |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 cup whole berry cranberry sauce |
mayonnaise |
4 whole wheat tortillas |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in skillet and cook onion and pepper until soft. Remove from skillet and set aside.
2. In same skillet, brown a tortilla spread with a bit of mayo, and top with some of the cheese, the turkey,avocado, vegetables, and a few spoonfuls of the cranberry sauce. Finish with more cheese,.
3. Run under broiler for a few minutes, until cheese melts. Top with another mayo-smeared tortilla, brush with olive oil, and return skillet to stovetop. Flip to brown second side.
4. Cool slightly, and cut into six wedges. Repeat with 2 more tortillas to make another quesadilla.
