Sqash Blossom Quesadillas
from the kitchen of girlichef
tortillas
squash blossoms
melting cheese
salsa verde or amarillo
Heat a heavy skillet or comal over medium-high heat. Once it is very hot, set a tortilla on top. Cover it with melting cheese, layer it with squash blossoms, drizzle it with salsa, cover it with another tortilla. Once the bottom is golden and toasty, flip it and make that side golden and toasty. Commence eating.
Show it off...or just eat in peace...
...ooey gooey #cheeseslut joy!
I'm a woman of few words today.

Nice, very nice. Must peruse my squash garden!
ReplyDeleteooo that is very cheesy. When I saw your tweet I was wondering how you would make a quesadilla without squashing the flowers :P
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful, but also very colorful.
ReplyDeleteIf I can get a plot I plan on joining the community garden next year just fro these beauties. I will plant nothing but zucchini and squash.
ReplyDeleteLove how these gooey filling flowing over...
ReplyDeleteFew words but a lot of innovation! I never would have thought to use them that way!
ReplyDeleteThis is the most classic of classics! I wanna say shhhhh - dont tell the secret but I have not been so quiet myself - enjoy , enjoy and enjoy some more - ...I have to say, if not for any other reason except to go on record ........shhhhhhhh dont tell anyone!
ReplyDeletewhat a great idea for quesadillas!
ReplyDeleteHow pretty. You are so creative! I have been meaning to get out there and visit with so many blogs but it's been a crazy weekend. Then my freakin' internet router will lock up, how I hate it!
ReplyDeleteI plan to write you an email from work...lets get caught up :-)

How lucky for you guys that everyone else leaves them. That's great and just a perfect, simple and delicious way to use the blossoms.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, I love how cheesy and yummy they look! I've never had squash blossoms. Intersting! That sure looks like one delicious quesadilla!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a kid my tia Maria would fix something similar to this for us kids. Then she took the blossums, stuffed queso inside then slid the the flower into a green chile and made chile relleno with blossom centers. I hadn't thought of those in years. Yum. Thanks, The Olde Bagg
ReplyDeleteNever a dull moment with you is there... your goodies always sound so good.
ReplyDeleteI have wanted to try squash blossoms forever! This looks delicious! :-)
ReplyDeleteI hope you are all better after your weekend shelf of doom disaster ((hugs)).
Que maravilla de quesadillas, esto se ve total. SAludos
ReplyDeleteOMG I am totally making that when I go home tonight! I have a few blossoms left in my garden, but not enough to really stuff and fry. So, one quesadilla just for me, it is!!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! And they look really yummy too!
ReplyDeleteMy dad has become obsessed with squash blossoms lately! Maybe a lot of the others don't know that you can eat them? Hmmm. Strange.
ReplyDeleteAwesome quesadillas!

I guess I'm going to have to plant a squash next year since I never ever see any for sale. This looks wonderful Heather.
ReplyDeleteVery droolworthy quesadillas..looks awesome..
ReplyDeleteThis year is the first time I've heard of eating squash blossoms. I am so intrigued; your recipe looks absolutely amazing! I think yours will be my first intro to the squash flower. Thanks for sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteNow you have me longing for June 2011 when the squash blossoms enter my garden. Such a long time! (Wish I'd thought of it)
ReplyDeleteI've never tried squash blossoms and have often been intrigued by the idea. We didn't grow squash this year but next spring we will and I'll try them. Your pictures are so pretty.

So simple, yet beautiful and tempting!
ReplyDeleteThat looks good! A different way of cooking squash blossoms from the rest that I have seen...lovely!

ReplyDeleteThe blossoms are beautiful. Thanks for sharing this delicious dish with My Meatless Mondays.
ReplyDeleteI have never tried squash blossoms but love the colors of them :)
ReplyDeleteYou're killing me with the foodie goodness. These quesadillas plus your poblano concoction from last week would seriously be my last meal.
ReplyDeleteThis makes me very sorry I that I didn't plant squash this year if for no other reason than to eat the blossoms! Completely delicious!
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing! I have never had squash blossoms before. I will have to keep my eyes open for them :)
ReplyDeleteAnd those pictures speak a thousand words! WoW! I want one. Perfect!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I have been wondering if there's a community garden near where I live. I should look that up.
ReplyDeleteI would love to try them. Do they taste like the squash they come from?
I've never heard of squash blossoms - they sure do look good though! Love some quesadillas.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures! I can never find squash blossoms--they look like they would be so fun to play with. ;-)

This looks divine. I am going to have to grow my own squash next year because I haven't found a squash blossom yet in the market.
