Sunday Supper, Crazy Good Quesadilla
Quesadillas are one of my favorite last minute dinners
Not only are they quick and easy to make,
you can fill them with just about anything!
Now when I tell you what’s inside this one,
you’ll probably think I’ve lost my mind
or that I’m recalling pregnancy cravings 😂
This quesadilla is like a crazy combination
of chicken wings and Hawaiian pizza…
You know how BBQ chicken wings
are often served with a bleu cheese dipping sauce…
and Hawaiian pizza is topped with ham and pineapple…
Well, this quesadilla has a layer of BBQ sauce,
topped with bleu cheese crumbles
and chopped cooked chicken,
then chopped pineapple
pieces of ham,
and finally a generous sprinkle of grated Gruyère cheese
Another tortilla goes on top
and the quesadillas are ready for cooking~
I gave these a spray of olive oil
and baked them on a sheet pan in the oven,
but you can also cook them in a skillet
with a little olive oil and butter,
flipping to get them crisp on both sides
The bleu cheese and the Gruyere are the “glue”
that holds everything together
As the quesadillas cook, the cheese melts…
It oozes out the edges a little,
making your mouth water as you cut them 😋
They taste amazing!
This crazy combo is sweet, savory, tangy and delicious!
I also made one with bacon instead of ham,
so good!
Adjust ingredient amounts according
to the number of quesadillas you’re making
These make great appetizers too~

That filling is bomb! No wonder it’s crazy good. I want some too 🙂
Thank you Angie, it is the bomb!
We do quesadillas here a lot, especially for fast suppers. I like using shrimp that I keep in the freezer, it only takes 10 minutes to defrost them. Lots of cheese and some green onions, with a little avocado is our favorite.
That sounds good, quesadilla fillings have endless possibilities!
The quesadilla looks delicious, Jenna! Roll Tide, it was a tough win 🅰️ Happy Sunday and stay warm!
Thanks Pam! I was watching the game with my daughter and my best friends, all who are Ole Miss Alumni, so it was a lot of fun~ they are Alabama fans too so we all were winners!
This looks fab. I love quesadillas and this is a wonderful combo.
Thanks so much Jeanie!
Indeed, these look crazy good!
Thanks Mary 🙂
I love quesadillas too. If they are only available on an appetizer menu, I have been known to order them as my entree. This is a crazy combination, but I’m sure it was delicious.
I do the same Linda, the appetizer section sometimes appeals to me more than anything in the entree section!
More great combos of deliciousness! We love quesadillas too!
Happy Sunday!
Thanks Nancy, I bet they have wonderful quesadillas in Arizona!

Thanks Lynn, quesadillas are a great way to reinvent leftovers!
These look delicious Jenna and so easy to make… so appealing to this lazy cook’s heart lol. Thanks for sharing and I’m pinning! Hope you have a great week
I am all about easy these days Kim, and making quesadillas can be as simple as just filling with cheese! They are so good with any filling you can come up with and such an easy dinner 🙂
I’m a fan of quesadillas too, and these sound so great, Jenna!
Thanks Kitty, it is a yummy combo!
Lots of flavor Jenna! We love quesadillas on the panini press. Our favorite combo is leftover pulled pork, bbq sauce, cheese, a little red onion and jalapeño. 🙂
That sounds good Mary, quesadillas have endless possibilities!
