Pineapple quesadillas

These quesadillas are a little different since they have pineapple in them, but they are both spicy and sweet. If you want more spice just increase the amount of chili powder (and add a dash of cayenne). I served these with bbq sauce on the side and shredded lettuce for a little more crunch.


Ingredients:

2 flour tortillas
2 tablespoons cream cheese
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
2 tablespoons chopped green pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh pineapple
1 tablespoon chopped red onion

Directions:

In a small bowl, heat cream cheese until soft, add mozzarella and chili powder and mix well. Spread half the cheese mixture on one tortilla. Top with green pepper, pineapple, and red onion. Add the remaining cheese mixture on top and cover with remaining tortilla. Place the quesadilla on aluminum foil on a baking sheet and spray with non-stick spray, place under the broiler. Broil for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown. Flip and broil for another 2-3 minutes, or until the other side is equally brown and crispy. Check your quesadillas regularly when under the broiler since all broilers are different. Remove from heat and allow to rest for 1-2 minutes. Cut in wedges with a pizza cutter. Serve with bbq sauce.
