When I spend days outside in the scorching Florida summer heat, I always seem to have less of an appetite.
I found this recipe for Peach and Brie quesadillas on Cooking Light magazine’s website. I thought it sounded like an interesting combination, and opted to try it because Brie is my all-time favorite cheese.
The quick and easy recipe proved to be a delicious success with the creamy richness of the Brie and the tangy bites of fresh peach.
Peach and Brie Quesadillas
What you need:
Sauce:
2 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon grated lime rind
Quesadillas:
1 cup thinly sliced peeled firm ripe peaches (about 2 large)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 teaspoon brown sugar
3 ounces Brie cheese, thinly sliced
4 (8-inch) fat-free flour tortillas
Cooking spray
Chive strips (optional)
What to do:
To prepare sauce, combine first three ingredients, stirring with a whisk; set aside.
To prepare quesadillas, combine peaches, 1 tablespoon chives, and sugar, tossing gently to coat.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange 1/4 of cheese and 1/4 of peach mixture over half of each tortilla; fold tortillas in half.
Coat pan with cooking spray. Place 2 quesadillas in pan; cook 2 minutes on each side or until tortillas are lightly browned and crisp.
Remove from pan; keep warm. Repeat procedure with remaining quesadillas. Cut each quesadilla into 3 wedges; serve with sauce.
Garnish with chive strips, if desired.
