Broccoli, Kale, & Cheese Quesadilla

I am constantly making wraps with my ancient grains tortillas, and they are delicious. Today, I decided to try making a quesadilla to switch it up a bit. Verdict: also delicious. 

Here's the recipe for a quick and easy broccoli, kale, & cheese quesadilla.


What you'll need: 

Whole grain wrap (I used ancient grain.)
Hummus (I used roasted red pepper.)
Broccoli
Kale
Cheese of your choice (I chose shredded mozzarella.)
Panini press (you could probably use a George Foreman grill or even make it in a skillet if you don't have a panini press.)






First, I cut up the broccoli into small pieces so the quesadilla wouldn't be too thick. You need to boil or steam the broccoli until tender. Then, it's time to put it all together. Spread the hummus on the wrap, covering half of it. Top the hummus with the kale and broccoli, and sprinkle with your cheese.







Fold in half and place on the panini press. I let it cook for probably about 3-5 minutes until slightly crispy. I used two spatulas to remove the quesadilla from the press onto a plate. It was a little flimsy, so be careful.









Once it cooled a bit, I cut it into four small triangles, and enjoyed with a few strawberries. I told you it was easy! What a perfect Spring lunch :)
