Turkey Cranberry Quesadillas


  • Author: Julia
  • Total Time: 26 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Description

Four turkey, cranberry and cheddar folded quesadillas.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 tortillas 8-inch flour tortillas
  • 2 cups Cooked leftover turkey, shredded
  • 1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese, grated
  • 1/2 cup Prepared cranberry sauce
  • 2 scallions Scallions, thinly sliced
  • 2 teaspoons Neutral oil

Instructions

  1. Confirm the cooked turkey was refrigerated safely. Lay out four 8-inch tortillas and spread 2 tbsp cranberry sauce on half of each, leaving a small edge.
  2. Divide 2 cups shredded cooked turkey, 1 1/2 cups grated cheddar and two sliced scallions among the sauced halves. Fold tortillas closed and press lightly.
  3. Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat. Cook one or two at a time about two minutes per side until tortillas crisp and cheese melts. Check the center of the reheated turkey filling for 165°F, lowering heat if the outside browns first.
  4. Cut each folded quesadilla into wedges and serve promptly. Record tortilla size, filling leakage and true batch time in a trial.
