Brussels Sprout Quesadillas
If you need an easy meal or appetizer that is sure to wow your friends – and surprise them with what’s inside – try these Brussels Sprout Quesadillas. Shredded Brussels sprouts really shine and pack in the veggie goodness, and they’re absolutely delicious paired with the melty, buttery goodness of Monterey Jack. You can make these on a panini press to get crispy ridges, or just use a skillet and your Top Chef skills to masterfully flip to crisp up both sides.
