INGREDIENT NOTES:

CHEDDAR CHEESE:

• Cheddar cheese helps to combine the filling well. It melts easily and provides a sharp flavor. We can use high-fat Mexican blend, Colby Jack, or Monterey Jack instead.

BACON:

• Bacon is used to deliver a savory flavor in this quesadilla. Additionally, you can use the prepared morning sausage, turkey bacon, or chopped pancetta.

SPINACH:

• Spinach cooks immediately and gives fiber content along with a few carbs.  We can alternate it with finely chopped zucchini, kale, or arugula.

MOZZARELLA CHEESE:

• Mozzarella cheese helps to form a structure and provides stretchiness. Swap it with the provolone, Oaxaca cheese, or Monterey Jack.

BELL PEPPERS:

• Bell peppers give a little bit of sweet taste and provide color. We can replace them with diced zucchini, mushrooms, or green chilies.
