Ingredients




4 Tortillas
8 oz of Mozzarella
12 Basil leaves – thinly sliced or chopped
5 Roma Tomatoes
2 teaspoons of Balsamic Vinegar
1 clove of minced Garlic
½ teaspoon Salt
¼ teaspoon Pepper
2 tablespoons Butter

Preparation

1 Mix 3 chopped tomatoes, about 6 basil leaves, garlic, salt, pepper, and balsamic vinegar in a bowl. Set aside. 2 Heat skillet. Add 1 tablespoon of butter. 3 Once melted, place tortilla in skillet and top with 1 sliced tomato (remove seeds first), half mozzarella, and about 3 basil leaves. Top with other tortilla. 4 At this point it is probably about time to flip. Press the quesadilla down with your spatula to get everything to stick together. Flip! 5 Cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden brown and cheese is all melty. 6 Remove and repeat for other quesadilla. 7 Remove from pan and top with chopped balsamic tomatoes.
