Easy Gouda Wedges Recipes

HAM AND GOUDA QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Spread cream cheese over 2 of the tortillas. Layer tortillas with ham, tomatoes, cheese and parsley. Top with remaining 2 tortillas.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add one quesadilla; brush top with more oil. Cook 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cheese is melted. Remove from skillet; keep warm. Repeat with remaining 1 tablespoon oil and second quesadilla.
• Cut each quesadilla into 8 wedges. Serve immediately.

GOOEY GOUDA PUFF-PASTRY BITES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. On a lightly floured surface, roll out pastry to an approximately 11-by-16-inch rectangle. Trim edges straight to a 10-by-15-inch rectangle. With the tines of a fork, prick pastry all over at 1/2-inch intervals. Cut into twenty-four 2 1/2-inch squares (a 4-by-6 grid). Press each square into the cup of a mini muffin tin. Spoon 1/4 teaspoon Dijon into bottom of each pastry shell. Refrigerate until pastry is firm, at least 15 minutes.
• Bake until pastry cups are puffed, golden along edges, and beginning to set, about 15 minutes. Working quickly, remove from oven and press a cube of cheese into center of each pastry with the handle of a wooden spoon. (Cheese should depress pastry to reach bottom of cup.)
• Continue baking until pastry is golden brown and cheese is melted, 8 to 10 minutes more. Let cool in tins a few minutes. Transfer to a serving tray, top with jam, and sprinkle with pepper. Serve warm.
