Ingredients
  

4 large flour tortillas

1 cup cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or regular yogurt)

1/4 cup honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup mixed fresh fruits (such as strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, and banana), thinly sliced

1/4 cup granola (for a crunchy topping)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish, optional)

Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Use a hand mixer or whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and well-blended.

    Assemble the Quesadillas: Take one flour tortilla and lay it flat on a clean, dry surface. Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture across the tortilla, ensuring to leave a small border (about 1/2 inch) around the edges. This will help prevent overflow during cooking.

      Add the Fruit: Evenly distribute the sliced fresh fruits over the cream cheese layer. Feel free to get creative with the arrangement—this not only enhances flavor but also makes for a stunning presentation when cut.

        Top It Off: Spread another layer of the cream cheese mixture over the fruit, then carefully position a second tortilla on top. Press down gently to compact the layers, ensuring everything is neatly assembled.

          Cook the Quesadillas: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once the skillet is hot, gently transfer the quesadilla into the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until it turns golden brown and crispy. Use a spatula to carefully flip the quesadilla and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side until equally crispy.

            Slice and Serve: After both sides are perfectly crispy, remove the quesadilla from the skillet and let it cool for a minute. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the quesadilla into wedges for easy serving.

              Garnish: For a delicious finishing touch, sprinkle the quesadilla with crunchy granola and dust lightly with powdered sugar, if desired. Garnish with fresh mint leaves to elevate the presentation and add a pop of color.

                Enjoy: Serve your Fruity Fiesta Quesadillas warm or at room temperature. They make for a delightful breakfast, a sweet snack, or a vibrant dessert that everyone will love!
