Ya know…quesadillas don’t have to be all tex-mex-y!!!
I’m calling this sweet goodness pictured above a “quesadilla” but there isn’t any cheese or queso. But there is some almond butter to act as the ‘glue’ in this snack.
But somehow “almondbuttadilla” just isn’t working for me…so I’m sticking with quesadilla. 😉
This amazing snack calls for almond butter (peanut butter works too!) raspberries and mini chocolate chips. And of course, some tortillas.
You make them just as you would a quesadilla…lay out the filling on half of the tortilla, then fold and warm up on a hot, lightly greased skillet or griddle. And bam…
You end up with this gooey-sweet goodness. *drool*
These are a wonderful afternoon snack…as they are well balanced with the right amount of protein, fruit and touch of sugar…and will keep the kids (and you!) full until dinner!
