I had something like this at a restaurant last night and had to try duplicating it at home. This potato quesadilla reminds me of a pierogi. I think this recipe can be played up with just about anything you like with potatoes. This can be a super-fast meal if you use the heat and serve bacon and premade mashed potatoes.

Ingredients

  • potatoes: 2 cups (mashed)
  • slices cooked bacon, crumbled: 6 piece
  • green onions: 0.25 cup (sliced)
  • flour tortillas: 8 piece
  • cheddar cheese: 2 cups (shredded)
  • butter: 2 Tbsp (softened)
  • salsa: 1 cup
  • sour cream: 0.25 cup
