Roasted Red Pepper Quesadillas with Hot Mango Jam!
Here we have Roasted Red Pepper Quesadillas with Mango Hot Chili Jam from Date Night Chef using our Mango Chile Jam.
I grew up in Indialantic, Florida. There were four Mango trees along the border of our property. I used to climb those trees all the time but I don’t think I ever tried a Mango until I became an adult. Now I love to make...... Mango Salsa and serve it on top of grilled Pork Loin Chops. (I’ll post that recipe soon!)

Mango trees are very common in our area, in fact Merritt Island which runs from Melbourne where I live now north to the Kennedy Space Center, and was once filled with Pineapple and Mango plantations. If you aren’t familiar with Mangoes you must try one soon!

I recently discovered an amazing product, Mango Hot Chili Jam made in New Mexico by http://www.chileboys.com/

I decided to try this intriguing jam with Quesadillas for dinner tonight. It was awesome. It was the perfect blend of heat and sweet. Not so hot as to scorch my tongue and not too sweet. I heated the jam to soften it which made it perfect for dipping the tips of each wedge of Quesadilla.

Mango has such a sweet but refreshing tropical flavor and it was balanced perfectly with the hot chili peppers.

Date Night Chef’s Roasted Red Pepper Quesadilla with Mango Hot Chili Jam

Ingredients
2 Large Whole Wheat Tortillas
4 ounces Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
2 Ounces Sharp Cheddar Cheese
1 Ounce Dry Grated Cheese ( I used Edam but Parmesan would work fine)
3 Ounces Roasted Red Peppers sliced thinly (I buy them in a jar)
1 t Chipotle Sauce (Substitute Salsa if needed)
1/2 t Minced Garlic

INSTRUCTIONS

Spread half the mozzarella on half of each tortilla. Lay the red pepper strips on top of the cheese. Sprinkle with the minced garlic and chipotle sauce. Top with sharp cheddar cheese. Fold in half and fry in a non stick skillet on high heat until the cheese starts to melt. Flip the quesa to fry the other side and sprinkle the grated cheese on top so it melts. Slice each quesa into four wedges using a pizza cutter. Microwave the Mango Hot Chili Jam for 30 seconds to soften.

Roasted Red Pepper Quesadillas with Mango Hot Chili Jam is Fun, Fancy, but Easy!
