Breakfast Blueberry Quesadillas

A delicious and unique breakfast quesadilla filled with ricotta cheese, dried blueberries, and a hint of lemon flavor, served on whole wheat tortillas.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
  • 1 (3-oz) package dried blueberries
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tsp lemon extract
  • 4 whole wheat flour tortillas
  • 1 tsp butter

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, dried blueberries, brown sugar, and lemon extract. Mix well.
  2. Spread 1/4 of the mixture onto each tortilla, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edge.
  3. Fold each tortilla in half and press gently. Heat a skillet over medium heat, add butter, and cook each quesadilla for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cheese is melted.

Notes

For a fresher taste, substitute dried blueberries with fresh blueberries. Serve with a drizzle of maple syrup or honey for added sweetness. These quesadillas are best served warm.
