Quesadillas with Prosciutto and Sun-dried Tomatoes


Quesadillas are quick, tasty and simple to make, great for appetizer, main dish and even breakfast. Prosciutto is one of my favorite ingredient, I really missed its salty taste, the last time was in May 2009 with Zucchini Prosciutto Sandwiches, it has been almost a year that I haven't touched it. I still have half a jar of sun-dried tomatoes left from the Mediterranean Rolls and cheddar cheese. This combo gives an amazing taste.

  1. I love Quesadillas! They are on my list of things to make but I never seem to get down to it. Although they are very versatile and easy to make. The "Italian" version sounds interesting especially since I am a great fan of sun dried tomatoes :)
