GOAT CHEESE AND GUAVA QUESADILLAS
Cotija cheese is a firm textured, somewhat crumbly white Mexican cheese, traditionally made from goat's milk but also made from cow's milk. It is available in latin grocery stores. If Cotija is not available, substitute with feta. If guava jelly is unavailable, substitute strawberry.

Steps:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine goat cheese and guava jelly until just blended (little bits of cheese and jelly are a nice in a bite). Spread the goat cheese mixture on 4 of the tortillas and top with the remaining 4 tortillas.
- Lightly coat the skillet with cooking spray. Place 1 of the quesadillas at a time and cook until lightly browned. Turn and finish browning the second side. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas.
- Slice quesadillas and serve sprinkled with crumbled Cotija cheese with salsa on the side for dipping.
CHEESE QUESADILLAS
Super satisfying and ready in less than 10 minutes, it's no wonder quesadillas are a mealtime favorite. In Mexico they're typically made with Oaxaca cheese, however Cheddar, jack or colby provide an impressive melt too! Enjoy with homemade salsa and avocado.

Steps:
- Lay 6 tortillas on a work surface. Divide the cheese among the tortillas. (Its best to leave about an inch border on the edge of the tortilla uncovered to allow for the spread of the melting cheese.) Top with remaining tortillas and press gently to seal. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small skillet. Carefully place a quesadilla in the skillet and fry, turning once, until golden and little bubbles appear on both sides, about 4 to 5 minutes total. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas, wiping out the pan between batches if the butter burns, and adding more butter, as needed.
- While the quesadillas cook make the salsa: Halve the tomatoes and grate them on the largest holes of a box grater into a bowl, discarding the skins. Grate the onion into the tomato, and stir in the cilantro, hot sauce, and salt, to taste.
- Cut each quesadilla into 4 wedges with a pizza wheel or knife and serve with the salsa and avocado.
CHEESE AND GUAVA POCKETS
Steps:
- Working with 1 empanada wrapper at a time, cut the dough down the center to make 20 half circles.
- Onto 1 half of each half circle, leaving a narrow boarder around the rim to pinch, add 1/2-ounce each guava paste and queso blanco.
- Using a finger dipped in water, trace the edges of the half circles to moisten the dough. Fold uncovered half of the dough over the filling, making sure to press out all the air as you work. The final product should resemble a triangle with 1curved side. Using the tines of a fork, dipped in flour, if needed, crimp the sides to seal. Repeat with remaining 19 pastries.
- Heat 1-inch of oil in a heavy-bottom skillet to 360 degrees F.
- Fry the pastries, in batches, until golden, about 2 minutes. Flip and fry 2 minutes more. Remove to a paper towel lined plate to drain, then transfer to a serving platter. Dust with powdered sugar and drizzle with honey to serve.
PROSCIUTTO, FIG, AND GOAT CHEESE QUESADILLAS
Steps:
- Set up grill for direct cooking over medium heat. Oil grate when ready to start cooking.

- INDOOR: Prepare quesadillas as directed. In a skillet large enough to fit tortillas or an electric griddle, heat 1 to 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. When oil is hot, carefully fry both sides of quesadillas for 2 to 3 minutes or until golden brown; turning with a large spatula. Garnish as directed.

SPINACH AND GOAT CHEESE QUESADILLAS
Many types of greens would be delicious in these quesadillas. Spinach is the quickest to wilt and the easiest to find.

BLACK BEAN AND GOAT CHEESE QUESADILLAS
For these quesadillas, I prefer to use my own cooked black beans, which I try to keep on hand in the freezer. Canned baked beans are also an option, but they are higher in sodium than home-cooked beans.
