Every now and then I like to have a meal that doesn't have meat. Quesadillas are super easy to do this with. This recipe is also perfect when you are trying to get rid of vegetables that you have in your fridge. I made this for lunch one day for Ben, Rachel, and myself and they loved it. Couldn't even tell it was vegetarian. Plus, super easy to make and made in under 15 minutes. This meal is low carb, even with the tortillas. Hope you enjoy.
Ingredients
flour tortillas (I found these low carb ones from Publix. They only have 4 net carbs so you can use these for Keto)
white mushrooms
red and yellow peppers
1 small onion
Shredded Monterey Jack Cheese
Chili Lime Seasoning (found this at Walmart they sell at Trader Joes also)
Olive Oil or avocado oil
Toppings
sour cream
romaine lettuce
guacamole
salsa
Step by Step
Take your peppers and onions and cut into thin slices.
Get out a saute pan and add a tablespoon of oil into pan. Turn to a medium heat and add in your peppers and onion.
Next you want to add in a tablespoon of your chili lime seasoning all over the top of veggies. Once those cook down for about 3 minutes add in your mushrooms. (When trying to portion your veggies make as much as you want in your quesadilla.) Cook for another 3 minutes.
Remove vegetables from pan and set aside.
Take the same pan add a little bit more oil in the bottom and put your tortilla down in it. Add a nice helping of your shredded cheese and veggies on top. Then place another tortilla on top. Press down.
You will want to cook for 5 minutes on medium heat then flip over, drop down again, and cook for another 5 minutes.
Remove from pan and cut into triangles service with sour cream, lettuce, salsa, and guacamole.
Enjoy!
