It’s baaaack. The white bean basil spread that is.

Please tell me you remember these fresh corn and tomato open-faced sandwiches? Yes, yes?

For some quick and easy peach quesadillas that will rock your summer meal plan like no other.

How To Make Peach Quesadillas

Anyway, let’s get to these quesadillas.

We’ll quickly whip up the basil-packed white bean spread in our food processor. Bonus points if you make this ahead of time so it’s ready to go for dinner.

We’ll slice up just a few ingredients – some peaches, some green onions.

We’ll assemble the quesadillas with some spicy arugula and some mozzarella cheese, just to bind it all together.

We cook em’ up in a skillet until crispy and drizzle on a nice amount of what else? Balsamic glaze. I mean, are you at all surprised? But really, it adds the perfect finishing tang.

Sweet, salty, super fresh.

Recipe for quick & easy peach and white bean quesadillas. With a basil-packed white bean spread, fresh peaches, arugula and balsamic glaze!

Peach and White Bean Quesadillas

Yield: 6 large quesadillas
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

Quick and easy, these peach and white bean quesadillas are an awesome summer meal! On the table in 30 minutes, they’re filled with a white bean spread, fresh peaches, greens and balsamic glaze. Vegetarian with a dairy free / vegan option.

Ingredients

  • 6 large whole wheat flour tortillas
  • 1 batch white bean spread
  • ¼ cup thinly sliced green onions
  • 2 medium ripe peaches, pitted and sliced (or nectarines!)
  • 1 cup packed fresh arugula
  • 1 ½ cups shredded regular or dairy free mozzarella cheese
  • balsamic glaze, for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Place the tortillas on a work surface. Smear some of the white bean spread on half of each tortilla. Top with some of the green onions, the peach slices, arugula and mozzarella cheese. Fold the empty half of the tortilla over the filling to form a semicircle.
  2. Set a nonstick skillet over medium heat. When hot, place an assembled quesadilla in the pan and cook, flipping once halfway through, until both sides are browned and the cheese is melted.
  3. Cut into triangles and serve topped with a drizzle of balsamic glaze.

Notes

Of course, feel free to adjust the amounts of the fillings to your taste. I like to stuff my quesadillas pretty full, so you may get more quesadillas if you use less of the fillings in each one.

The cook time above is if you cook all the quesadillas (i.e. all 6 quesadillas) and if you cook them one at a time (my nonstick skillet is small and I can only fit one in at a time). It will be quicker if you have a larger pan.
