2 servings

Ingredients

One 6-ounce can boneless, skinless salmon, drained and flaked
½ medium orange or yellow bell pepper, finely diced (about ½ cup)
2 ounces herbed goat cheese (about ¼ cup)
1 teaspoon capers, drained
Two 8-inch whole wheat flour tortillas
1 teaspoon canola oil

Directions

Combine the salmon, bell pepper, goat cheese, and capers in a bowl. Divide the mixture evenly and spread over half of each tortilla. Fold over, press down gently, and set aside. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the quesadillas and cook until the tortillas become crisp and golden on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip the tortillas and cook an additional 2 minutes. Cut each quesadilla in half or quarters and serve.
