Green Chili Pork Quesadillas

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground pork

  • 1 medium onion, chopped

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 3/4 cup chunky salsa

  • 1 4-ounce can chopped green chilies, drained

  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

  • 10 medium flour tortillas

  • Vegetable cooking spray

Green chilies contribute some nice sweet heat to these pork quesadillas.

Directions

  • Heat oven to 450º F. In large skillet, brown ground pork and onion over medium heat 7-8 minutes, stirring, until onion is tender. Pour off any drippings; season with salt. Stir in salsa, chilies and cheese. Spoon equal amounts of pork mixture, about 1/4 cup, on one half of each tortilla; fold tortillas to close. Arrange quesadillas on baking sheets; lightly spray tops of tortillas with vegetable spray. Bake 8-10 minutes until tortillas are lightly browned. Make 10 quesadillas; cut into wedges to serve.
