Instructions
Step 1
Wash and dry produce. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion; finely chop a few slices until you have 2 TBSP. Dice tomatoes. Quarter lime. Core, deseed, and dice green pepper.
Step 2
In bowl, combine half the sour cream (you'll use the rest in the next step) and a squeeze of lime juice. Season with salt and pepper. Add water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency.
Step 3
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add green pepper, sliced onion, and a big pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and tender, 7-8 minutes.
Step 4
Stir in Southwest Spice Blend, remaining tomatoes, and 2 TBSP water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes are softened and mixture is thick and saucy. Turn off heat; stir in remaining sour cream until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 5
Place tortillas on a clean work surface; sprinkle one half of each tortilla with Mexican cheese blend. Top with veggie filling, then sprinkle with pepper jack. Fold tortillas in half to create quesadillas.
Step 6
Wash pan used for veggie filling; return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Add quesadillas; cook until tortillas are golden brown and cheeses are melted, 2-4 minutes per side.
Step 7
Cut quesadillas into wedges. Drizzle with lime crema. Serve with any remaining lime wedges on the side.
