Ingredients

• 2 pieces Flour tortillas
• 1 cup Shredded Monterey Jack cheese
• 0.5 cup Fresh strawberries, sliced
• 0.5 cup Fresh pineapple, diced
• 1 piece Fresh jalapeño, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon Butter

Directions

Step 1

Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface.

Step 2

Sprinkle half the shredded cheese evenly over the tortilla.

Step 3

Top the cheese with sliced strawberries, diced pineapple, and finely chopped jalapeño. Distribute the fruits and jalapeño evenly for balanced flavor.

Step 4

Drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey over the toppings, and then sprinkle with a pinch of ground cinnamon.

Step 5

Place the second tortilla on top to create a sandwich-like structure.

Step 6

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Swirl the butter around to coat the pan evenly.

Step 7

Carefully place the quesadilla into the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side or until the bottom tortilla is golden and crispy.

Step 8

Using a spatula, gently flip the quesadilla and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes until golden and the cheese is melted.

Step 9

Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and transfer it to a cutting board. Let it cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing into wedges.

Step 10

Serve warm, optionally drizzling with additional honey or sprinkling with more cinnamon for extra sweetness and flavor.
