I made up this ham and pineapple quesadilla recipe when I worked at a cafe and was craving Hawaiian-style pizza. We were serving Mexican food that day so I had to work with the ingredients on hand. I have made this repeatedly since. My favorite quesadilla. I like to mix sour cream and salsa in a small bowl and dip it.

7.29.20 Love quesadillas, you can pack just about anything inside, and they’re good for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I only made one for lunch today, so I just eyeballed the fillings and loaded it up. I made a Hawaiian pizza last week, had some fresh pineapple left in the fridge, and this certainly did have similar flavor. It’s definitely sweet, and that pineapple tamed the hot salsa. Didn’t have any sour cream on hand, but next time certainly will add that. iamscaredofflies, thanks for sharing your favorite quesadilla recipe. Read More
