Apple Cream Cheese Quesadillas & Happy News

I will start off this post by sharing some pretty wonderful news.  Our family of 3 will be growing next Spring!  We are very hopeful and feel immensely grateful.  Our Seashell is stoked about having a little playmate around.  Even at the tender-but-wise age of 2, she is aware of what is happening and knows there will be a baby she can play with and help with all the time.  The thought of a friendship and camaraderie being born between such a sweet soul and a new baby is almost too much for my heart to handle.  Seashell's joy and charisma are magnetic, and I cannot even imagine the bond that will be formed as they grow together and love each other as siblings and as friends.  

So, with that news shared, I will now discuss these amazing quesadillas! They are a fun and unexpected, and I loved eating them for breakfast one day and then as a snack the next.  Seashell really enjoyed them, too; they are a yummy snack for the little ones, as well.  

They remind me of Fall (my favorite season).  I am so excited for the change of seasons as it brings new hope, warm recipes, and happy memories.  

Enjoy!

Ingredients (Serves 2):
2 soft flour tortillas
1 apple of your choice, sliced into thin, small pieces
a couple of spoonfuls of cream cheese
cinnamon-sugar for topping, if desired
a drizzle of maple syrup, if desired

The Process:
Warm a pan with a little butter on medium heat.  Spread the cream cheese on each tortilla.  Top each side with the apples.  Place the 2 tortillas together to form a quesadilla, and gently transfer this to the warmed pan.  Cook for a couple of minutes on each side, but be careful not to burn!  Serve with a little maple syrup and a sprinkle of cinnamon-sugar.
