What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Fab Foodstuff: Quesadilla Apple Bacon Cheese! Your “go-to” snack just got even better. Take a hayride through the apple orchard where farm-to-table treats are as common as animal cloud shapes in the sky. Choose a nice juicy red apple; something to sink your teeth into like Gala, Fuji, or Delicious. The cheese could be American, but I prefer extra sharp cheddar. Go meatless or go crazy and add a couple slices of Applewood Smoked Bacon, with enough crunch to match the crispy tartness of sliced apples. Get the picture? Nibble, nibble.
QUESADILLA APPLE BACON CHEESE
Ingredients:
1 apple, cored and thinly sliced
2 flour tortillas
4 ounces extra sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
4 strips Applewood Smoked Bacon, cooked until crisp
Instructions:
Sprinkle cheese on half a tortilla. Layer apple slices over cheese. Add more cheese. Lay two strips of bacon on top. Fold tortilla in half. Repeat process for second tortilla. Microwave quesadilla for 20 seconds on High setting, or until cheese is melted. Transfer quesadilla to a toaster oven for a crunchy crust that is golden brown. Serve immediately.

Sounds lovely, minus the bacon. Thank you, Gail.

I’ve also used grilled chicken. But cheese is always a good compliment with apples. 🍎🍃🧀

Have you ever baked an apple pie with a layer of cheddar cheese beneath the top crust? It’s wonderful. 🍃🍎🧀

Indeed, this Vermonter certainly has! I also make a tart with caramelized onions, apples, and cheddar, extra sharp of course!

Apple, bacon and cheese – oh yes! This combo would make a delicious panini too… Gene liked a cheddar cheese crust (occasionally) with his apple pie 🙂
