Smoked Cheddar Quesadillas with Yellow Tomato Salsa and Cilantro Lime Sour Cream

Recipe courtesy Rachael Ray

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan
1 cup frozen corn kernels
Coarse salt and black pepper
1/2 pound smoked white cheddar cheese (preferred brand Cabot Vermont Smoked Cheddar)
1/2 pound jalapeno pepper Jack cheese
4 (12-inch) flour tortillas

Directions

Combine chopped tomatoes, onions, jalapeno, mint and
cilantro in a small bowl and season generously with salt. Toss salsa and set aside. Combine sour cream, lime
zest and juice and cilantro leaves in food processor and process until smooth and light green. Transfer to a
small serving bowl. Sour cream can be used to top soup or quesadilla or both.

Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add oil and corn and quickly toss to warm. Season corn with salt and
pepper and transfer onto a plate. Shred your cheeses, wipe out your pan and return it to the stove top over
medium high heat. Add a flour tortilla to the skillet. Cook 30 seconds, then flip tortilla. Cover half the
surface of the tortilla generously with smoked cheddar, pepper Jack and 1/4 corn. Fold tortillas over and
press down gently with a spatula. Turn tortilla a few times to melt cheese. Remove quesadilla from the skillet
and cut into wedges. Top with salsa and sour cream.
