    Apple QuesadillaPin

    I made myself another yummy quesadilla for lunch this week. This time the filling was crispy bacon, cheddar cheese and delicious apples, drizzled with maple syrup. This would be a perfect lunch with a green salad and small bowl of soup. Simple, but filling, and very tasty! I absolutely loved it. I will be making this quesadilla again for sure, maybe in the fall when apples are season. Enjoy!

      I thought this site was for Colombian Recipes. This is why americans think that all hispanics are mexicans.

        Hi Kristen,

        https://www.mycolombianrecipes.com/about/

        As I mentioned on my about page "My recipes are not limited to traditional Colombian food. I have many other recipes for dishes representing other countries that I enjoy cooking for my family and friends, which I will also share with you".

        I usually tell people when a recipe is from Colombia.Thanks for your comment!
