Pepper and Mango Quesadillas

"These are quick, healthy and delicious! I like to use a saltier, cheddar-type cheese to bring out the sweetness of the peppers and mango; add as much heat as you wish with the chile peppers (but I particularly like lots of chiles with mango!). Use complementary-flavored colored tortillas instead of plain old white if you like! Can be served as an appetizer, snack, lunch, or light dinner."

  1. Really flavorful and fresh tasting quesadilla. We loved the sweetness of mango, heat of jalapeno and saltines of cheese all combined. I will double the cheese next time, though.
