MASHED POTATO QUESADILLA



Mashed Potato Quesadilla image

I had something like this at a restaurant last night and I had to try to duplicate it at home! It reminds me of a perogies! I think that this recipe can really be played up with just about anything you like with potatoes! This can be a super fast meal if you use the heat and serve bacon and premade mashed potatoes!

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups mashed potatoes
6 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
¼ cup sliced green onions
8 flour tortillas
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons softened butter
1 cup salsa
¼ cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Stir together the mashed potatoes, bacon, and green onions. Spread the mashed potato mixture onto one side of half of the tortillas, spreading to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top of the mashed potatoes and top with the remaining tortillas. Lightly butter each side of the quesadillas.
  • Preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Place a quesadilla into the preheated pan, and cook until golden brown and crispy, then turn over, and continue cooking on the other side until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining quesadillas. Serve with salsa and sour cream.

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 quesadillas, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

flour tortilla
4 large potatoes
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon of chopped chives
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup cooking vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Skin potatoes.
  • Boil Potatoes for 20 mins or until soft.
  • Drain Water
  • Mix Potatoes with beater.
  • Add Sour Cream, butter, milk, salt, and chopped chives in with the mashed potatoes and mix.
  • Put mashed potatoes on half of the tortilla shell and add shredded cheddar cheese on top of potatoes. Fold empty half on tortilla shell over the mashed potatoes.
  • Put vegetable oil or butter in frying pan or skillet and place quesadilla in pan. Let cook for about 30 seconds then flip and let other side cook for about 30 seconds. This will make the tortilla shell crispy and yummy!
  • If you have a quesadilla maker it makes it a little easier that cooking them in the frying pan.
  • If you are really in a hurry you can substitute homemade mashed potatoes with BOB EVANS sour cream and chive mashed potatoes. I've made both ways and both are delicious!
  • I Make these for my niece all the time, and she loves them!

POTATO QUESADILLAS



Potato Quesadillas image

I made potato-rolled tacos all the time and wanted to switch it up, so I started making quesadillas out of my original recipe. I serve the creamy, crispy potato quesadillas with salsa and sour cream. For an extra surprise, serve homemade guacamole, too. -Marina Castle-Kelley, Canyon Country, California
