This Vegan Kale Quesadilla with fresh, homemade Pico de Gallo featuring our Jalapeño Green Apple sauce is sure to please!
SERVES 1
Ingredients
Kale Quesadilla:
1 whole wheat tortilla
1/2 C. vegan shredded cheese
1 C. chopped kale (just leafy part, no rib)
1 minced shallot
1 tbsp avocado oil (or any high heat safe, neutral oil)
Instructions
HEAT a small—medium size pan over medium heat with the oil, then sauté the shallot until softened and lightly golden.
ADD in the chopped kale and let sauté until slightly wilted.
HEAT up a large enough pan to place the tortilla into.
PLACE tortilla in the pan and cover one half of the tortilla with 1/4 C. vegan shredded cheese.
LAYER on the sautéed shallot and kale and sprinkle on top with remaining 1/4 C. of cheese.
FOLD the empty tortilla side over everything, to seal it all up.
COOK for 2 mins on each side, or until slightly browned and crispy.
SLICE into triangles and serve with pico de Gallo, and garnish with a lime twist.
