Sweet Potato Quesadillas

Lately my days have been a busy blur of dental appointments, deadlines, party planning and cleaning.   All of this chaos in the midst of fighting a nasty cold had this mami drained. One evening I had no plan or desire to even attempt to make dinner, but with a hungry family I knew I had to whip up something quick, quesadillas to the rescue! I can always count on quesadillas, they are quick and easy to make and always satisfy. Everyone loves quesadillas! They are a quick weeknight meal that can easily transform yesterday’s leftover into a new delicious dinner.

Sweet potatoes and onion are lightly seasoned with taco seasoning and roasted.  Top a few tortillas, a few handfuls of shredded cheese and return to the oven.  Simple, easy, delicious.
