Peach Quesadillas {Perfect Game Day Appetizers}

Thursday, January 30, 2014 by Lolli 45 Comments

 

This post is brought to you by Libby’s®, but all thoughts are my own.

Whether you’re hosting a big game day party this weekend, heading over to a friend’s house to watch some football, or simply staying at home and laying low, I’ve got the perfect appetizer or snack to share. I had a blast testing out several varieties of peach quesadillas – and by testing, I mean cooking and photographing and then eating a ton.

I have a hard time with a lot of fresh fruits because of something called oral allergy syndrome. When I eat certain fresh fruits, I have an allergic reaction. OAS is not actually a food allergy but an allergy to weeds and trees. Rather than go into a complex explanation here (you’re welcome to google it), I’ll just say this: I miss eating many fruits, and look for opportunities to eat as much cooked or canned fruit as I can, since cooked fruits are fine for me to eat.

So when I was challenged to come up with a game-day appetizer using one of Libby’s® fruits or vegetables, I was drawn immediately to their canned peaches and determined that I would find a way to showcase peaches in a unique recipe. I made three recipes – one flopped, and the other two were fantastic. Today, I’m going to share with you my first success (the second recipe will be coming soon, I promise!).

Ingredients
  • Flour tortillas
  • 1 (15.25 oz) can Libby’s® peaches, diced or sliced thin
  • 1 Tablespoon melted butter
  • Variety of fillings:
  • Cheddar cheese
  • Pepper jack cheese
  • Cream cheese
  • Cinnamon sugar
  • (amounts will vary depending on size of tortillas)

Instructions
  1. Lightly butter one side of a tortilla and place it, butter-side-down on a heated skillet. Add a thin layer of your choice of cheese, then a layer of peaches, then additional cheese. Top with a second buttered tortilla. When the first side is slightly browned and crispy and the cheese is melty, flip the tortilla to heat the second side.
  2. Remove from pan and cool for 30 seconds, then slice into triangles for serving.

Notes
Variations: Pepper Jack and Peaches (pepper jack cheese and canned peaches)[br]Cheddar and Peach (cheddar cheese and canned peaches)[br]Cinnamon Peaches and Cream (cream cheese, cinnamon sugar, and canned peaches)

When I made the Cinnamon Peaches and Cream quesadillas, I sprinkled the outside of the tortilla with cinnamon-sugar before heating on the pan. That may have been a mistake, since the sugar burned faster than I could cook the quesadilla. Despite the fact that they were a little darker than I would have liked, I loved the taste. Dessert quesadilla? Yes, please!

My favorite quesadilla appetizer by far, though, was the Pepper Jack and Peach Quesadilla. It was the perfect combination of sweet and spicy – and it even tasted yummy cold.

    Oh my gosh, these look GREAT! The peach, cinnamon and cream… reminds me of a random sandwich I had overseas where they didn’t speak English, except it was condensed milk not cream… strange combo, but oh so good!

    Peaches and cheese is not a combo I would have come up with – but now that you mention it, it sounds delicious! Glad I found this at the Wonderful Wednesday Hop!

    I would make a fruit salad. The Cinnamon Peaches and Cream recipe sounds good. A Mexican fast food restaurant here serves a dessert that has a fried tortilla with cinnamon and sugar with apple pie filling and cheddar cheese on top and they are to die for. Would love to try making something similar at home.

    Pepperjack and peach I’ve made before, but cinnamon peaches and cream is GENIUS!

    I will have to look into this OAS more. There are a lot of fruits I can’t eat fresh, like bananas, but I’m fine eating banana bread.
