I had a lot of fun with this recipe. In addition to brie, I made some with cheddar cheese and some other white cheese, then one with some crumbled blue cheese (without jalapeno). Then I thought, well, what if I don't have pears? I made one with dried raisins, scallions and cheese - that was a nice combo, too. This made a nice light supper on a day I just did not feel like cooking.

I used a mandoline, set on 1/8 inch, to cut everything except the cheese. I should have used a larger size tortilla to better fit my quesadilla maker but I just went with what I had. My girls and I liked these but the guys, well they want some meat in their quesadillas. Thanks for posting. Made for Please Review My Recipe tag game

OMG this is so good!! I used jarred jalapenos (the kind you use on nachos) and forgot the onion. The creaminess of the brie with the sweet pear and bite of the jalapeno was outstanding! I made a double serving (2 quesadillas) for dinner and wished I had more! Going into my best of book! Made for Photo Tag.
