Delicious Quesadilla Pie: Layers of tortillas, cheese, beans, chiles, tomato, onions, baked until crispy. Irresistible!
Ingredients:
  • Basic ingredients:
  • 4 large flour tortillas (9-10 inches diameter)
  • Butter
  • 1/2 pound cheese, either mild or sharp cheddar, or Monterey Jack, grated
  • Potential filling ingredients:
  • Beans, cooked (black beans, pinto beans)
  • Tomatoes, chopped
  • Summer squash, chopped
  • Onions (green onions, red onions, onion greens)
  • Mushrooms (if using a lot, sauté first, to remove moisture)
  • Cooked shredded chicken, pork, or beef
  • Chiles, either from cooked green chiles, chopped pickled jalapenos, or salsa
  • Cumin and/or chili powder for extra heat
  • Garnishes:
  • Chopped avocado
  • Chopped cilantro
  • Thinly sliced iceberg lettuce dressed with vinegar and salt
  • Sour cream
  • Salsa
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Butter a pie dish that matches the size of your tortillas (I used a 10-inch Pyrex dish for 10-inch tortillas).
  • Assemble layers in the pie dish: Start with a tortilla at the bottom, followed by a sprinkle of shredded cheese. Alternate with fillings like black beans and onion greens, continue layering with tortillas, zucchini, tomato, pickled jalapenos, and cheese. Season with cumin and chili powder. Repeat layering with more cheese, black beans, tomatoes, and onions. Finish with a final tortilla layer and spread butter on top.
  • - Preheat oven to 350°F. - Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. - Remove foil and raise the temperature to 400°F. - Continue baking for 15-20 minutes until the top is golden brown and the cheese bubbles. - Take out of the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. - Cut into quarters and serve with chopped avocados, shredded lettuce, cilantro, salsa, and/or sour cream.
