Time 15m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 (10 inch) flour tortillas
½ cup refried beans
⅔ cup shredded Mexican four-cheese blend

Steps:

  • Lay tortillas flat on a clean work surface. Spread refried beans down the middle third from top to bottom, leaving a 1-inch space halfway down to allow for a fold. Sprinkle cheese on top, lightly pressing into the beans.
  • Fold the left side over the beans, then the right side on top, so the two sides are overlapping in the middle. Fold in half vertically so the bottom edge meets the top edge.
  • Place the quesadillas into the toaster slots and set the toaster to medium heat. Toast for 1 cycle. Carefully remove quesadillas and reverse the vertical fold, so that the inside is now the outside. Return to the toaster and toast until lightly browned, about half a toasting cycle.
  • Carefully remove the hot quesadillas to a plate. Cut in half at the fold to make 4 pieces.

Categories     Dinner     Quick and Easy

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

Salt
2 large eggs
Zest from one lemon
1/2 cup prepared basil pesto
1/2 pound farfalle (bow tie) pasta
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 heaping cup chopped onion (about one medium onion)
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups chopped cooked turkey meat (leftover turkey thigh meat works great)
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Boil salted water for pasta: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 1 Tbsp of salt for every 2 quarts of water. (While the water is coming to a boil, prep the ingredients to save time.)
  • Cook the pasta: Add the pasta to the boiling water. The pasta should take 10 minutes to cook to al dente, cooked through but still a little firm. Cook on a rolling boil, uncovered.
  • Drain pasta: When the pasta is ready, reserve 1/2 a cup of the pasta cooking water and drain the pasta.
  • Season to taste: Salt to taste (depending on the saltiness of your leftover turkey and the saltiness of the pesto, you may not need any additional salt). Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper to serve. (If you want, sprinkle with a little fresh lemon juice as well.) Add back a little of the reserved pasta water if you want the pasta a little more loose, or if it is too dry. Links: Easy Roasted Lemon Pesto Turkey from Sarah's Cucina Bella

TURKEY-PESTO TOASTERDILLA



Turkey-Pesto Toasterdilla image

Toaster quesadillas are all the rage right now and are simple to make once you get the hang of it. The key is to make sure not to add too much to them. They need to be as flat as possible so that they do not get stuck but move freely in and out of the toaster slots.

Time 10m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 (10 inch) flour tortillas
2 tablespoons prepared pesto
1 stick mozzarella string cheese
2 slices deli smoked turkey breast

Steps:

  • Lay tortillas on a clean work surface. Spread 1 tablespoon of pesto over each tortilla, leaving a small space around the entire edge. Peel the cheese back in thin layers and divide between the two tortillas in a single layer. Place 1 slice of turkey over the cheese on each tortilla.
  • Fold each tortilla in half, creating a half moon shape. Press down to flatten. Take the right half and fold it over to the middle. Take the left half and fold it over to the middle, creating an envelope shape. Press down to flatten again.
  • Place quesadillas in the slots of the toaster. Set toaster to medium heat and toast for one cycle, about 3 minutes. Carefully remove quesadillas and flip them around. Toast for 2 minutes more.
