Mushroom and Jack Cheese Quesadillas!
I wasn't to sure about this recipe once I started preparing it. I was disappointed that there wasn't any meat in them..lol! To my SURPRISE...THEY were GREAT! In fact I will try this recipe with different types of mushrooms from time to time. PORTOBELLO seems to be my mushroom of choice! I served it with a wonderful nutty red rice, stirred in some diced tomatoes and cilantro and voila...a mexi rice in the making! Roasted asparagus finished off the meal nicely!

1/2 pound fresh white or cremini mushrooms, sliced
1 tsp dried oregano

8 tbsp prepared chipotle chile salsa or salsa of choice.

Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick spray and set over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they give off their liquid and it reduces to a glaze, about 6 minutes. Stir in the oregano and pepper; cook, stirring constantly, just until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Remove the skillet from the heat.
Place 4 of the tortillas on a work surface. top each with 1 tbsp of the cheese, one quarter of the mushroom mixture, and 1 tbsp of the remaining cheese. Top with the remaining 4 tortillas, lightly pressing down to flatten slightly.
Wipe the skillet clean with a paper, towel. Spray with nonsick spray and set over medium heat. Add 1 of the quesadillas and cook until crisp and the cheese begins to melt, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Transfer to a cutting board and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Cook the remaining 3 quesadillas. Cut each quesadilla
into 4 wedges, making a total of 6 wedges. Serve with the salsa. Enjoy!!
