  • 1 pkg. (19.76 oz.) Johnsonville® Italian Mild Sausage Links, prepared according to package directions and coin-sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced thinly

Quesadillas Directions

In sauté pan heat oil and add garlic. Cook until garlic is aromatic. Do not brown. Add sausage, onion and jalapeno, sauté until peppers are soft. Remove and keep warm. Mix cilantro, cumin and sour cream together, reserve. Heat sauté pan to medium temperature. On single tortilla, spread 1 tablespoon sour cream mixture. Top this with approx. 1/4 cup sausage mixture and add a few slices of olives. Top all this with a 1/4 cup cheese. On another tortilla spread 1 tablespoon salsa. Place this on top of first tortilla to form a sandwich. Place in hot sauté pan and cook until golden brown. Place a dinner plate over top of quesadilla and invert pan. With quesadilla on plate, slide it back into the pan with browned side up. Cook until both sides are golden, remove, slice and serve. Repeat until all tortillas are used.
