My husband and I created this recipe after we realized you could add anything to caramelized onions and it would taste great. These are easy to whip up, and the filling can be made ahead of time.âLisa Harrington, Halifax, Nova Scotia Ingredients:
3 medium sweet onions, finely chopped |
2 tablespoons butter |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1 to 2 tablespoons brown sugar |
3/4 pound johnsonville® mild ground italian sausage |
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded swiss cheese, divided |
8 flour tortillas (8 inches) |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook onions in butter over medium heat until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in brown sugar. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until onions are golden brown, stirring frequently; remove and keep warm.
2. In the same skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain.
3. In a large bowl, combine the sausage, 1 cup Swiss cheese and onion mixture. Place four tortillas on two greased baking sheets; sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon Swiss cheese. Top with sausage mixture, and remaining cheese and tortillas.
4. Bake at 425° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Cut each quesadilla into six wedges. Serve immediately. Yield: 2 dozen.
