No offense to Outback, but they really aren't making as tasty food as I remember. Not that I am a frequenter of it these days as I don't really live close to one and there are like a million new restaurants in New Orleans to try these days. I went to meet my new beautiful niece at the hospital last week and went to dinner with my parents after. My mom loves her a chain and we ended up at Outback. I was kind of excited to relive my fond memories of it in college, it was by far the fanciest restaurant we frequented. I had some overpriced cheap wine and some filet medallions with veggies. I filled up on salad and their still very yummy ranch so I had a bit of leftovers. My day a few days later turned out to be a bit of a shit show and then my dinner plans got canceled so I decided to take advantage of the leftovers. I did not want to relive them in their actual form as it wasn't my fave the first time. As you may know I always have corn tortillas laying around so I decided to make quesadillas! Full disclosure, quesadillas, like stir fry, are two basic (are those basic?) skills I have never been able to master. I thought I would cheat with my beloved grill pan.
The leftover meat and veggies, salsa, tortillas, jalapeno and cheddar |
Chopped and shredded and ready to assemble. |
Brush one side of each tortilla with oil. I did this and photographed with the same hand by the way (pats self on back) |
Assemble your quesadilla |
Put it in a pan over medium high heat and place a heavy lid on top. Flip after 5 minutes on each side. |
Add a little salsa, or sour cream or avocado or nothing! |
A blogging tip, always make two, you are bound to mess up one! |
Happy Cooking!
