I love simple meals that you can through together at a moments notice. Perfect for using up leftovers, nights on the go, or for sleep-deprived new moms who totally forget about dinner until 9:00 at night.Not that that’s ever happen in our house. Please welcome today’s guest blogger, Becca from Crumbs and Chaos, with a quick meal you can throw together any night.
Good morning, Alli-n-Son Readers! I’m Becca from Crumbs and Chaos. I blog with my 3 sisters, together we have 10 kids between us…and they’re all under the age of 6! Crazy? Yes. Chaotic? Most definitely. Full of crumbs? Absolutely. But we’re having a blast and wouldn’t trade it for anything! Our blog has family friendly recipes, some healthy, a lot indulgent, all delicious. We also try to share tips about keeping the chaos to a minimum when having birthday parties or doing things like spring cleaning (is that a dreaded word to anyone besides me?) Stop on over to Crumbs and Chaos and say hi! You can find us on Facebook here. I hope you enjoy the quick and easy meal I have for you today…have a great week!
One thing we love around our house is barbecue. Since we live a good 45 minutes from our favorite BBQ restaurant, we decided to invest in an electric meat smoker. Very wise choice…who needs to go to a restaurant when you can make it yourself at home? Not me.
Well, we have LOVED it and so have our friends. I recently made pulled pork for a small crowd, which means there are leftovers. Every mom’s dream come true, a meal that we don’t have to cook. We ended up with leftovers for more than one meal, so I decided to add a twist to a regular quesadilla.
These are amazing! The gooey cheese, the sweet-spicy bbq sauce, the fresh cilantro and the crisp, golden tortilla all make for a perfect flavor combination. I haven’t listed exact measurements because this is more of a build-a-meal kind of dish, add what you love, adjust what you don’t. This is a quick week night meal that you can serve with a side of black beans and some corn on the cob.
Ingredients
- Flour Tortillas
- Pulled Pork (smoked, made in the crockpot or store bought)
- Your favorite BBQ sauce (you can always make your own)
- Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded
- Cilantro, chopped
Instructions
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- In a small bowl, heat pork in microwave until warm. Stir in bbq sauce.
- Build your quesadilla - one tortilla topped with cheese, then the saucy meat, cilantro and more cheese. Place a tortilla on top of that.
- Place in skillet and cook until golden and cheese is beginning to melt. Flip and do the same with the other side. Remove from pan, let stand a minute or two before cutting into wedges and serving with sour cream or anything else you like.
