Ingredients
-
4 whole wheat tortillas, like Guerrero or Mission (soft taco size)
2 ears of sweet corn on the cob
12 basil leaves, ribboned
1/2 cup chopped red onion
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
1/2 lb of heirloom tomatoes, chopped
1/2 tsp sea salt
pepper to taste
4 oz shredded monterey jack cheese
1 TBSP extra virgin olive oil
Directions
Steam the corn in a steamer bag for 4 min, or according to steamer bag directions (corn may be boiled or grilled).
In a bowl, combine the garlic, onion, and basil. Carefully remove the corn from the steamer bag, and cut the kernels off, and add to the garlic/onion/basil mixture. Stir and set aside.
In another bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes with the salt and pepper. Mix, and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. To construct quesadillas, place a tortilla in the oil, and fry until lightly browned. Remove from heat, and sprinkle with cheese. Top the cheese with 1/4 of the corn salsa, and 1/4 of the chopped tomatoes. Fold and set on a serving platter. Repeat with remaining tortills.
