Turkey BLT Quesadilla

Anyone have left over turkey from Thanksgiving? Everyone has probably moved to turkey sandwiches now. My husband loves sandwiches, but I am not quite as much of a fan. I try to find 'fun' ways to eat sandwich ingredients - in pitas, as a wrap, or in this case as a quesadilla. Try my quick and easy take on a spiced up BLT.
 
Turkey BLT Quesadilla


Ingredients:

Flour tortillas, 2 per person
Turkey, shredded
Arugula
Tomato, sliced
Avocado, sliced
Bacon, cooked
Shredded cheese, any variety
Dijon mustard, 4-5 T
Honey, 2-3 T
Chipotle pepper in adobe sauce, 1 tsp
Apple cider vinegar, splash
Sour Cream for garnish

Mix mustard, honey, chipotle pepper and vinegar together. Adjust ingredients as needed for your taste and set aside.

Better Bonus Tip: If you don’t have all of the ingredients to make the mustard sauce, use what you can. Experiment, have fun! Substitute red wine vinegar instead of apple cider.  Use a smoky dried seasoning, like chili powder, instead of the chipotle pepper. Use honey mustard instead dijon mustard and honey. Just remember to taste along the way - you have to make sure it tastes good :)!

Lay out the tortillas, one across from the other - to use as a top and bottom.

Top tortillas with turkey, then veggies, a couple of bacon slices, a drizzle of spicy mustard, and a sprinkle of cheese.



Grill both sides until lightly browned. Try serving with side of sour cream or sliced avocado.


 

Better Bonus Tip: Try with shredded chicken throughout the year.

Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!
