Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon oil
1 small onion, sliced
1 pound mushrooms, coarsely chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon thyme, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup sour cream (or greek yogurt)
2 teaspoons chipotle chilies in adobo, chopped
4 small (5-6 inch) tortillas
1 cup monterey jack cheese (or gouda or mozzarella), shredded
1 tablespoon cilantro, chopped

Steps:

Heat the oil in a pan over medium-high heat, add the onion and mushrooms and cook until the mushrooms have released their liquids and the liquid has evaporated, about 10 minutes, before adding the garlic and thyme, cooking until fragrant, about a minute, and seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
Mix the sour cream and chipotle chili peppers in adobo.
Heat a pan over medium heat, place two tortillas in the pan, sprinkle half of the cheese followed by the mushroom, the remaining cheese and remaining tortilla.
Cook until the quesadilla is golden brown on both sides and the cheese is melted, about 2-4 minutes per side.
Serve topped with cilantro and chipotle creme or with the chipotle creme on the side for dipping.
