Sometimes after working on my dissertation all day, I do not want an involved meal. Everyone likes quesadillas, right? Well anything that involves cheese is golden in my husband's eyes. Mixing the sour cream with the meat gives it a nice tang. If you like, feel free to add a dash of Frank's Hot Sauce to the mixture. It will give it a nice kick. I served this with a fresh tomato salad and bottled taco sauce. Simply mix quartered small tomatoes, a few slices of cucumber, 1 tsp. olive oil, splash of sherry vinegar, salt, pepper and a pinch of dried basil together. Makes for a great quickie meal.
3/4 Pound Ground Pork
1/2 Cup Chopped Onion1/3 Cup Light Sour Cream
3/4 Cup Shredded Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
8 Corn Tortillas
Vegetable Oil
Frank's Hot Sauce (Optional)
Kosher SaltHeat oil in a large skillet. Add onion and cook until soften. Add pork and a pinch of salt to taste stirring to break up the meat until it is browned and cooked through. Drain and move to a bowl. Let cool for 10 minutes.
Stir in sour cream and cheese and gently mix. Brush one side of each tortilla with oil. Divide mixture among half the tortillas. Place the remaining tortillas on top.
Wipe out your skillet and heat a Tbs. vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Place tortillas, two at a time, in the pan. Cover with a panini press (as shown above) or any heavy flat bottomed pan. Grill for 2 1/2 minutes on each side. Cut up and serve!
