How to Make Portabella Mushroom Quesadillas

  1. Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  2. Clean and slice 4 large portabella mushrooms (about 1 pound) into 1/2-inch thick slices.
  3. In a medium bowl, toss the sliced mushrooms with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Spread 1/4 cup of your favorite shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend) on one half of each of 4 large flour tortillas.
  5. Top the cheese with half of the seasoned mushroom slices.
  6. Sprinkle another 1/4 cup of cheese over the mushrooms.
  7. Fold the tortillas in half, pressing gently to seal.
  8. Cook the quesadillas for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Remove from the skillet and let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Garnish with fresh cilantro or salsa, if desired.
