Ingredients
- 1 extra large flour tortilla
- 8-9 dill pickle slices I used Vlasic Dill Pickle Chips
- 1 cup Dill Havarti cheese shredded
Instructions
- Heat griddle pan over medium heat.
- Put dill pickle slices on paper towels and cover to remove excess moisture. This is key to avoiding a soggy quesadilla.
- Lay the tortilla on a cutting board. Sprinkle ½ a cup of shredded Havarti cheese over half of the tortilla.
- Strategically place dill pickle slices on top of the shredded cheese to ensure a pickle gets into nearly every hypothetical bite.
- Cover with the other ½ cup of shredded Havarti cheese. Fold the naked tortilla half onto the loaded half.
- Put onto the warm griddle and let cook for 4-5 minutes or so, checking the underside periodically. When the underside is all golden brown and crisp and the cheese melty, flip.
- Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes or so, until you’ve reached desired doneness.
- Remove from heat and cut into quarters.
- Enjoy with Creamy Chipotle Ranch.

Notes
- This dill pickle quesadilla is pretty basic in the ingredient department - but it's also pretty delicious! You could also consider adding in a protein, like chicken or bacon, or using multiple kinds of cheeses, like Pepperjack or cheddar or another kind of good melting cheese.
