Loaded quesadillas with pineapple salsa!

Loaded quesadillas with pineapple salsa

These were pretty yummy, I could hardly believe they were good for me! They take just minutes to put together and cook-  the prep work is the worst! 

You will need: 
For the Pineapple Salsa:
Pineapple                                                                
Red Onion
Green Onions
A hot pepper
Spices of your choice
Cilantro
Butter
Olive Oil
For the Tomato Salsa:

Roma tomatoes 

Hot peppers 

Yellow or white onion 

Lime 

Cilantro 

Spices 

For the Rest

Whole grain tortillas without lard 

Cheese (any kind that melts well, I used cheddar because I had some) 

Green and hot peppers 

Zucchini 

Mushrooms

Olives 

Chicken

Sour Cream

wine (optional) 

Chicken broth (optional) 

                                                              

Prep Work - This would have been a lot of fun with someone helping me... 

Quarter and seed your roma tomatoes, otherwise the salsa will have too much water in it. I used three.  

Blend with about a quaurter of an onion, hot pepper to your taste (I used half of an anaheim without the seeds -  a slightly spicy but not very hot), Spices (I used Cumin, paprika, chili powder, and salt and pepper), Lime juice (Use about the juice of two for a batch this big),  and cilantro (I used a handful). Use plenty of salt. 

Shred cheese and cube chicken (boring I know) 

Slice up zucchini, mushrooms, some green peppers, some hot peppers and onions. 

Chop up red onions, green onions, cilantro, and some hot pepper  to be ready for  your pineapple salsa. Also some olives. 

Chop up some pineapple. 

Heat your pan with olive oil and butter in it. 

Wait until it's bubbling. 

Add your pineapple. 

Cook until browning and getting soft. 

Mix it in with the rest of the ingredients - set aside. I also added some red pepper flakes later to add a dash of red color. 

Throw in your chicken cubes. 

Loosen the browning bottom with wine or chicken broth

Take out your chicken. 

Clean the bottom again with some chicken broth, water, or wine. 

Add all your veggies. 

Add a little more olive if needed to help them soften up. 

Add your favorite spicy spices -I used cumin, paprika, cayenne, chili powder, and salt and pepper

Mix it all up.  

Cook until onions and mushrooms are getting soft. 

We have all our stuff 

I know this mexican food looks cheesy on this plate - But all my plates are in storage... so :(...
Sprinkle the cheese on the tortilla. 

Add all your filling

Little more cheese - it acts as the glue to hold it together. 

Onto a grill or in a heated pan it goes.  I like to use the george forman because I don't have to flip it, and wheat tortillas have a hard time staying together.  If you want some more browning you can rub oil or butter on the tortilla, but I just spray it with some olive oil and it turns out well. 

Get it all toasty brown. 

Cut it up how your like. 

Make it look all nice with your toppings. 

This is Derek's revision of it after I gave it to him. 

They must have tasted all right because he nearly ate the whole thing before taking off his coat or his backpack.  Such a cutie I have for a husband, I love him... More than I loved these quesadillas.  And they were really yummy.
