Fallen Souffle

This is what happens when you bring your husband to the grocery store…you bring home unnecessary baking goods. Ok, ok I have to admit, I tend to buy more chocolate chips, coconut, extracts and cocoa than one cook really needs, but Evan was like a little kid on our Sunday shopping trip, “oohh chocolate chips swirled!” His eyes light up like he has just seen Santa Claus himself…how could I resist such a cute face! I am going to be such a push over when we have kids. So I threw them in the cart, knowing good and well that I too wanted to try them myself. So I rationalize it, Evan made dinner so I would make cookies- it’s a fair deal.

We got the Nestle Semi-Sweet morsels swirled with white chocolate, the other option was semi-sweet with caramel…trust me it was a tough decision. I baked my famous but very secret chocolate chip cookies with the chips. Mmmm…delish. Nothing too spectacular but a nice change of pace nonetheless. I would buy them again when they were on sale again. I would like to try the caramel swirl chips in a chocolate/mocha based cookie…now I bet that would be divine!

Oh how I love Adam Sandler and the Thanksgiving Song, there need to be more Thanksgiving songs because it is just too darn early to be listening to Christmas songs!

But I digress…

So our supply of turkey is slowly but surely dwindling down and I am in desperate need of finishing it so I can clean out the fridge! We are somehow out of bread…I am utterly shocked but refuse to buy bread since I will be working the bakery tomorrow. So it’s time to get creative. I was surfing Martha’s website last night when I saw this yummy and surprisingly uncomplicated recipe for Turkey Quesadillas. Perfect! I altered her ingredients a bit, her recipe called for brie (who the heck keeps brie in the house!) which I substituted with swiss cheese and cranberry relish which I somehow forget to bring home from VA, so I used my favorite Harry and David Pepper and Onion Relish. This was perfect for a quick lunch and I will definitely make again with turkey or any other leftover meats or veggies!

Love to Eat Turkey Quesadillas
Serves 1

1. Start with 1 large flour tortilla, soften in microwave if necessary to make pliable. Spread half the tortilla with Dijon mustard.

2. Lay shredded turkey along the top of the mustard. Spread the relish overtop, and finish with the cheese of your choice.

3. Carefully fold over and pop in the toaster oven to toast until cheese is melted. Serve with sour cream if desired.
