Easy Veggie Quesadillas with a Melted Mozzarella and Cheddar Combo. A few clever steps and you’ll be chowing down on gooey, crispy quesadillas in no time!

Easy Veggie Quesadillas with Melted Mozzarella and Cheddar

cherry tomatoes

onion

½ bell pepper, red ((your fave colour))

spinach

tbsp red pesto ((check the notes, if you want to make your own))

cheddar cheese

mozzarella

whole grain tortillas ((check the notes, if you want to make them homemade))

chillies

Wash the tomatoes and pepper, peel the onions and cut them all into thin slices - the cheese too.

Wash the spinach and let it drain in a sieve.

Grab a tortilla and spread a layer of pesto over half of it. A tablespoon works well.

Add a light layer of cheese on top and a quarter of the tomato, pepper and onion, followed by a few spinach leaves.

Top it with another layer of cheese.

Then fold the other half of the tortilla on top and place in a large frying pan (nonstick).

Heat for 2-3 minutes. Flip and heat for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese has melted - a good indicator is a little running out the side.

Pro Tip: place a heavy pot on top of the quesadilla so that it flattens nicely and cooks more evenly - this will also stop the insides escaping! If you don't like the thought of putting a pot directly on your quesadillas then put a plate between the two.

This zucchini goat cheese pasta is a love letter to summer produce. It's inspired by Jennie Cook's recipe for zucchini butter and couldn't be simpler to make or enjoy.

Five Ingredient Zucchini Goat Cheese Pasta

T extra virgin olive oil

zucchini

tsp kosher salt

lb dried pasta, short shapes are best

goat cheese,

C chopped parsley (or other tender herb)

lemon

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium low heat. Add the zucchini and salt. Cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, making sure nothing is sticking to the bottom of the pan (lowering the heat if it does).  Until most of the liquid that the zucchini leaches out has been evaporated and the zucchini takes on a jammy consistency. Set aside.

Boil the pasta in a large pot of heavily salted water until just al dente. Reserve about a cup of the water and drain the pasta. Add the pasta to the pan with zucchini butter and toss with half of the reserved pasta cooking liquid over medium heat. Add the goat cheese, parsley, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Stir to combine, adding more pasta water if necessary.

As another person who photographs all her food before it actually makes it to the table, I think this recipe might actually be too good for me to photograph it. I'd probably have to eat it directly over the stovetop like a heathen. A+

Made this tonight and added some sautéed mushrooms and pine nuts. Love it! Light, great flavor and uncomplicated.

This was great and so easy! Thank you for helping me to use my zucchini and goat cheese!! I added a few cherry tomatoes when I blended the pasta in and cooked the zucchini with some red pepper flakes and garlic - yum!
