Recipe: Chocolate-Walnut Quesadillas

🍫🫐 This is one of those accidental recipes that you throw together when you’re hungry and then realize how delicious it is!

Warning: these dessert quesadillas are addicting. The walnuts, blueberries, and chocolate go surprisingly well together.

Makes 4 servings.

Ingredients:

  • 2 x 10-inch whole-grain tortillas

  • 1.5 ounces dark chocolate

  • 2-3 Tbsp walnut butter

  • ½ to ¾ cup blueberries

 

Directions:

  1. Heat a medium skillet over medium heat and place a tortilla in it, warming it for 30-60 seconds on each side. Repeat with the second tortilla.

  2. While the tortillas are warming, melt the dark chocolate in a microwave for about 1 minute, or in a small double boiler. Be sure to stir the chocolate occasionally while it’s warming so that it melts evenly.

  3. Place one warmed tortilla on a plate and spread the walnut butter on it, ensuring it’s covered right up to the edges. Sprinkle the blueberries over the walnut butter, and then drizzle with the melted chocolate.

  4. Top with the other tortilla, lightly pressing it down to gently “smush” the mixture together. 

  5. Cut into quarters and serve!
