what i ate : July12

I did awesome this week and planned a menu! Its worked out wonderfully and I haven't gone to the supermarket once. Last night's dinner was dee-lish-us.

 

Potato-Cheddar Quesadillas with Apple-Chipotle Salsa

for the quesadillas:


2 T oil


1 c sliced onion


1 large carrot, chopped fine or shredded


1 large garlic clove, minced


3 cooked medium new potatoes, sliced into 1/4 in rounds


2 flour tortillas, 8 - 10 inch (i used 4 tortillas because mine are quite small)


4 oz sharp cheddar cheese, shredded or thinly sliced

saute the onions and carrot in the oil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, for about five minutes
reduce heat to medium-low


add garlic and potatoes, saute an additional five minutes, stirring occasionally


build tortillas onto a griddle or pan as follows:


.tortilla.cheese.potato mixture.cheese.tortilla.


cook until cheese is melted and tortilla is slightly brown. flip. repeat.


presto! cut into wedges and serve with....

Apple-Chipotle Salsa


3 sweet apples (such as Fuji, Golden Delicious, whatever's on sale, Gala worked fine for me), cored and chopped


1 c minced red onion


2 green bell peppers, seeded and chopped

2 chipotles, chopped (if dried, soaked in hot water, otherwise use canned in adobo sauce)


1/2 small garlic clove (yeah right, go for the full one)


1/4 c lime juice


1 T apple cider vinegar


1 T olive oil


2 T chopped cilantro


s&p

combine apples, onion, and green peppers in large bowl.


mix remaining ingredients in smaller bowl.


add small bowl ingredients to large bowl ingredients and mix (i covered and shook mine)



and there ya go. super simple. and super yummy.
