This is a great fast recipe.   For those budget minded individuals use the fruit that is in season in your area…example: peach salsa.  Also if your family doesn’t like Gouda cheese as mine does not, use a cheese they do like.   I did find however, that cheddar doesn’t work well with the recipe.

Ingredients

* 4  8-inch flour tortillas
* 1  Tbsp. vegetable oil
* 6  oz. Gouda or smoked gouda cheese, thinly sliced or shredded
* 8  oz. cooked or smoked turkey or chicken, chopped
* 1/2  cup bottled roasted red peppers, drained and sliced
* 1  cup mango salsa or mango-peach salsa
* 1/4  cup snipped fresh cilantro (optional)

Directions

1. Heat oven to 250 degrees F. Brush one side of each tortilla with some of the oil. Place tortillas, oil side down, on extra-large baking sheet. Top half of each tortilla with cheese, turkey, red peppers, half the salsa, and the cilantro. Fold tortillas in half; press gently.

2. In 12-inch skillet cook quesadillas, two at a time, over medium heat for 6 minutes until lightly browned and crisp, turning once. Place cooked quesadillas on baking sheet; keep warm in oven while cooking remaining.

3. To serve, cut in wedges. Pass remaining salsa. Makes 4 servings.
