    PEAR QUESADILLAS
    (Quesadillas con Peras)

    This recipe is a good source of vitamin C, which keeps gums and blood vessels healthy. Ingredients
    4 medium whole wheat tortillas 1 cup grated cheese (try cheddar or Jack) 1 cup pear cubes (fresh or canned/drained) 1/2 cup finely chopped green or red peppers 2 tablespoons minced onion (green, red or yellow)

    Directions
    1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Lay two tortillas on a clean cutting board or on two plates. Place 1/4 of the cheese on each tortilla. Divide pears, peppers and onion between the two tortillas. Divide the remaining cheese between the two tortillas. Top with remaining two tortillas. Heat a pan or griddle to medium. Place one quesadilla in pan. Cook for 2-4 minutes, or until bottom of quesadilla begins to look a little brown. With large spatula, gently turn quesadilla over and cook the other side until a little brown, 2-4 minutes. Gently slide quesadilla onto plate. Cook the second quesadilla. Cut each cooked quesadilla into 4 pieces and serve. Refrigerate leftovers within 2-3 hours.

    6. 7. 8. 9.

    Tips
    Put pear cubes on a paper towel for a couple of minutes to help dry them out. This will help your quesadilla stick together! Out of pears? Try diced fresh apples, halved grapes, or even sliced bananas. Flavor boosters: add some chopped cilantro, or use pepper jack cheese.
