Goodness! June post!
Hello, my Dears!
Not too much new here. We've just been very busy with all the Summer things. My Porch has been open for some great visits. And I think I'll see a few this week, too.
Mostly I just enjoy each day and rattle around here in search of some calm in the storm.
My son was awake at 4 a m to welcome the first day of Summer with surprise s'mores and a rented-from- Amazon movie (John Wick 4)... He went to work and I sacked out in my recliner by 8.
I have a new kitchen gadget, a George Foreman quesadilla maker. It's very fun, and we've tried a few recipes. I made a pepperoni 2-crust tortilla pizza. It had Rao's sauce and mozarella. OF COURSE, pepperoni... I used some extra butter because I think the crust gets kind of dry... That was good. But then I found the Taco Bell Quesadilla recipe. I've made that twice. I'll say to Timber it down if you don't like spice... maybe sub pickle vinegar for the jalapeños... but it's the Bomb!
Makes 4 (flapped in half) or 2 full size
----
SAUCE
2/3 c mayo
2 t. Minced jalapeños
2 t. Jalapeño juice/vinegar
1 t. Paprika
2 t. Sugar
1-2 t. Cumin
1/2 t. Garlic powder
1/2 t. Red pepper powder
Mix all together (I'm sure I used more spice than it calls for)
For each large flour tortilla (4 total)
Smooth a large scoop of sauce on half. Add one slice of American cheese (4 total. I used the kind you unwrap)
Add a scoop of shredded chicken. (I used the pregrilled frozen from Aldi's that was nuked 40 seconds)
Top with a layer of cheddar/Monterrey jack blend shredded cheese.
Flap over top and grill until desired brownness.
I made them out flat with 2 crusts so I made 2... The second batch I added fresh diced tomatoes. Yum!
Well... I have to do a few chores and then get some sleep! It's already midnight. My days and nights are so skewed!
