Some of the most delicious meals can be made from fridge leftovers.
Quesadillas are especially good for leftover concoctions. You can literally put anything in them. We had shrimp and spinach in the freezer, so I went in that direction. It was a good decision for a Friday night quickie dinner.
Here is what I used, but like I said there are many variations:
-1/2 a white onion, chopped
-1/2 a jalapeno, chopped
-shredded cheddar cheese
-flour tortillas
-shrimp, thawed and patted dry
~1/3 cup chopped (frozen) spinach
-a dash each of: cumin, chili powder, salt and cilantro
Directions:
In a small pan, saute the onion, jalapeno, spinach and spices in olive oil. Then add in the shrimp and cook for another minute. In another pan, (NOT oiled) place a tortilla. Turn it on medium-low. Put cheese on the tortilla, and then spoon some of the filling you cooked on top.
Cover with another tortilla. Cook for about 5 minutes (or until slightly brown on bottom) and then carefully flip over with a spatula. Cook for another 5 minutes.
Eat!
