Pork and Sweet Potato Quesadillas (Click here for recipe)
Talk about fast and easy....and especially if you use every little "pocket of time" (Rachel Ray-ism) for something productive. I always read a whole recipe before I start cooking to come up with the fastest strategy to get 'er done. Here was the method to my madness this time: First, get the sweet potato in the microwave (can't beat that appliance for weeknight-friendly). While that's working, start browning the pork in a pan. Between stirs, come over to your cutting board and chop your garlic and scallions, and gather your fridge items and seasonings. A couple paces across your kitchen brings everything together, and before you know it, you have a gorgeously cheesy, savory and satisfying dinner.
We added heaping piles of sour cream and pickled jalepenos to our plates. The jalepenos were a must....and for a better reason than just my irrational passion for all thing pickled. They added a welcomed gentle spice to finish things off.
