Ingredients
  • 8 lg whole wheat tortillas
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 4 oz goat cheese, crumbled
  • ½ cup walnuts, chopped & toasted
  • Vegetable oil or cooking spray.
Instructions
  1. In a small bowl combine pumpkin puree & cumin, mix well.
  2. Lay out 4 tortillas and spread the pumpkin mixture equally over each.
  3. Sprinkle with goat cheese and chopped walnuts and top with remaining tortillas.
  4. In a large skillet heat up ½-1 tbsp vegetable oil over medium-low heat or thoroughly coat pan with cooking spray. Cook each quesadilla separately oiling between each quesadilla if necessary.
  5. Cook each quesadilla for 3-5 minutes on each side or until lightly browned.
  6. Cut into wedges if desired.
  7. Serve & Enjoy!
Notes
* Serve alongside a savory soup or salad for a complete meal. * Substitute cinnamon or nutmeg for the cumin to create a sweeter version of this quesadilla. * Add a tablespoon or two of mozzarella cheese to each if you prefer a more traditionally gooey cheesy quesadilla.
