Apple or Cherry or Blueberry Pie Quesadilla

"A quick and easy dessert that is quite tasty. You can change the fruit filling and cheeses to suit your mood or use fresh fruit in season.If using fresh fruit, you may have to cook atop the stove for a few minutes to help break down the fruit. Add 1/4 C sugar for each 2 C fruit. You may end up with extra fruit, so make 2 Quesadillas. Use cream cheese with cherry and top with sugar. Use provolone with blueberry or blue cheese with blueberry. Very inexpensive, too."

  1. You can get really creative with these. We ended up making fresh blueberry & cream cheese filled Quesadillas. It was like a quick cheesecake snack without the dirty dishes & bake time :) Thanks for the inspiration westtextazzy!
     
  2. COULDN'T BE HAPPIER WITH THIS! Oh, my!! I cooked down a granny smith apple (made for 1 serving) with a little sugar and cinnamon. Then I used one large tortilla...added cooked apple to half, topped with approx 2 TBS cubed cream cheese...folded tortilla over to create a half moon...spread melted butter over the top and sprinkled cinnamon sugar over that. Baked about 8 minutes and proceeded to devour while still VERY hot...burning my mouth in many different places but it was WORTH it! Could not put it down. This is one of my new favorite Zaar finds! Thanks Pamela... your recipe ROCKS!!! Made for PAC 2010
     
  3. ABSOLUTELY LOVED THESE, probably because it reminded me of the ol' saying ~ 'Apple Pie without Cheese Is Like..."! Anyway, I made the apple version with sharp cheddar & was very pleased with the results! Another time I'll definitely make the cherry version! Thanks for sharing!
