Grilled vegetables give these quesadillas their distinctive flair, while cumin and jalapeno peppers add a little zip. —Mildred Sherrer, Fort Worth, Texas
Corn 'n' Squash Quesadillas Recipe photo by Taste of Home
Grill corn, covered, over medium heat for 10 minutes; turn. Place the squash, onion and jalapenos on grill; cover and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side. When vegetables are cool enough to handle, remove corn from the cobs, chop the squash and onion, and seed and chop the jalapenos. Place in a large bowl.
Stir in the basil, oregano, garlic, salt and cumin. Place 1/2 cup filling on 1 side of each tortilla; sprinkle with cheese. Fold tortillas over filling. In a large cast-iron skillet or griddle, cook quesadillas in oil over medium heat until heated through, 1-2 minutes on each side. Cut into wedges.

I found this recipe while searching for ways to use the summer squash from our garden. (Bonus: I also used the jalapenos, oregano and basil growing there.) My husband and I enjoyed these very much and found them to be a tasty alternative to plain cheese quesadillas. The sweet corn and yellow squash flavors complement each other well. I didn't have access to a grill for the vegetables, but I boiled the corn cob on the stovetop and browned the other vegetables in a separate pan. It worked just as well, and we will make them again soon.

My sister and I loved this recipe. The two of us ate almost the entire batch the first time we made it! I mix up the filling ahead of time so it's a quick meal when we are in a hurry.
