Ingredients
  

Quesadillas
  • 4 Large Flour Tortillas
  • 1 medium Zucchini thinly sliced
  • 1 Red Bell Pepper thinly sliced
  • 1/2 Red Onion thinly sliced
  • 1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1/2 cup Crumbled Feta Cheese
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Dried Oregano
  • 1/2 tsp Salt or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper or to taste

Equipment

  • 1 Grill
  • 1 Grill Basket Optional, but recommended
  • 1 Large Bowl

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, combine the sliced zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat the vegetables evenly.
  2. Preheat your grill to medium-high. Place the vegetables in a grill basket and grill for 5-7 minutes, tossing occasionally, until tender-crisp and slightly charred. Remove from the grill.
  3. Lay a tortilla flat. Sprinkle about 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese on one half of the tortilla. Top with a portion of the grilled vegetable mixture and about 2 tablespoons of crumbled feta cheese.
  4. Fold the empty half of the tortilla over the filling. Place the quesadilla on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
  5. Remove the quesadilla from the grill and let it rest for a minute before slicing into wedges. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling. Serve immediately with your favorite dip.

Notes

Tip 1: A grill basket prevents smaller vegetable pieces from falling through the grates.
Tip 2: Press the quesadilla down with a spatula while grilling to help it seal and get great grill marks.
Tip 3: For extra flavor, warm the tortillas on the grill for about 10-15 seconds per side before assembling.
