Hawaiian-Style Quesadillas image

I made up this ham and pineapple quesadilla recipe when I worked at a cafe and was craving Hawaiian-style pizza. We were serving Mexican food that day so I had to work with the ingredients on hand. I have made this repeatedly since. My favorite quesadilla. I like to mix sour cream and salsa in a small bowl and dip it.

Time 35m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 6

10 flour tortillas
1 ½ pounds sliced ham
3 (8 ounce) packages shredded mozzarella and Cheddar cheese blend
1 (8 ounce) jar salsa
1 (15 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained
1 (8 ounce) carton sour cream

Steps:

  • Heat a griddle over medium-high heat. Toast one side of a tortilla, 1 to 2 minutes. Lay 2 to 3 slices of ham on the other side of the griddle to heat through. Flip toasted tortilla over, sprinkle with mozzarella and Cheddar cheese blend, layer with hot ham, spread with desired amount of salsa, sprinkle with desired amount of pineapple, and fold tortilla in half.
  • Turn quesadilla over and continue to cook until cheese is melted and tortilla has reached desired crispness, 2 to 4 minutes. Cut into wedges with a pizza cutter. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve with sour cream.
