Cheesy Asparagus Quesadillas

Ingredients:
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup diced red onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp chili powder
a couple shakes of cinnamon
1 large bunch of asparagus, trimmed, cut into 2” pieces, and lightly steamed
15 grape tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
4 flour tortillas (or gluten-free)
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
salsa

Instructions:
To make the asparagus filling, heat oil in a large skillet.  Add the onion and garlic and cook over medium heat until onion is softened.  Add the cumin, chili powder, and cinnamon.  Let cook for 1 more minute.

Add the steamed asparagus, tomatoes, and cilantro.  Cook for a couple of minutes, until all of the flavours are combined.  Transfer asparagus mixture to a bowl and set aside.

Wipe inside of skillet with a paper towel and spray with cooking spray.  To make quesadillas, divide the asparagus filling among the tortillas, spreading it on 1/2 of the tortilla.  Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese and fold the tortillas in half.  Heat the skillet over medium heat.  Add 2 tortillas and cook approximately 2 minutes per side or until golden.  Repeat with remaining 2 tortillas.

To serve asparagus tortillas, cut in half and top with a spoonful of your favorite salsa.
