Ham And Gouda Quesadillas 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.

HAM, APPLE AND CHEESE QUESADILLA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Spray 4 of the tortillas with cooking spray (or brush with olive oil). Lay the oiled tortillas on a large cutting board oiled-side down. Brush with the mustard and sprinkle with about half of the cheese. Top each evenly with a thin layer of ham, onions and some pepper, and then finish with the remaining cheese.
• Brush the apple butter evenly on the remaining tortillas. Place one apple-butter tortilla on top of a ham-and-cheese tortilla (filling sides in), and firmly press the tortillas together to make a quesadilla.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lay a quesadilla oiled-side down in the pan and cook until golden brown and the cheese starts to melt, about 2 minutes. Spray the top of the quesadilla with cooking spray, turn and cook until the other side browns and the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas.
• Cut the quesadillas into 4 wedges and arrange on plates. Toss the apples with lemon and juice and cinnamon to taste. Serve with the apple slices.

HAM AND CHEESE QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Arrange 4 tortillas on work surface. Sprinkle 1/2 cup cheese over each tortilla. Top with ham, leaving 1/4-inch borders. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon raisins over each. Divide remaining cheese and sprinkle over tortillas. Top with onions and remaining tortillas. (Can be prepared 6 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Melt 1 1/2 teaspoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Place 1 quesadilla in skillet. Cook until brown, about 3 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and keep warm. Repeat cooking process with remaining butter and quesadillas. Cut into wedges and serve.

SMOKED GOUDA AND CARAMELIZED ONION QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add onion, brown sugar and vinegar; sauté until onion is golden brown, stirring frequently, about 25 minutes. Remove from heat. Cool to room temperature.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Sprinkle cheese over half of each tortilla, dividing equally. Sprinkle prosciutto and sautéed onion over cheese. Season with pepper. Fold other half of each tortilla over cheese mixture. Brush tortilla with some of melted butter.
• Brush heavy large skillet with some of melted butter. Place over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook quesadillas just until brown spots appear, brushing skillet with butter between batches, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer quesadillas to heavy large baking sheet.
• Bake until tortillas are golden and cheese melts, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer quesadillas to work surface. Cut each into 6 triangles. Arrange on platter and serve hot.

HAM AND GOUDA QUESADILLA SNACKS

Steps:

• Mix cheese, ham, olives, and onions in a small bowl.
• Spread 1 tablespoon of mustard on each tortilla shell and spread about 1/3 cup of the gouda mixture over 1/2 of the tortilla. Fold the tortilla in half to cover the filling. Heat the filled tortillas in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat for 4 minutes or until cheese melts, turning once half way through cooking.
• Cut the quesadillas into 3 wedges and place on serving platter. Garnish with sour cream and peppers.
