We have time in the afternoon in between school and dance and I like to make a healthy and filling snack for our girls. Dancing for hours each evening is hard work and as a mom I want the food they eat to fuel their bodies. It’s important t me that we eat more vegetables and thanks to I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter we’re eating more vegetables with a new simple recipe guide.
Since I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter is now available in 3 varieties – Light, Original and Olive Oil I can find exactly the product I need for all my cooking and baking. With fresh buttery flavor it has 100% Taste. 0% Artificial Preservatives.
Using the Pick The Perfect Pair recipe finder from ICBINB I found this loaded vegetable quesadillas recipe. Packed full of vegetables and flavor it’s a new family favorite!
Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp. I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter
- 4 cups chopped assorted vegetables, (onion, zucchini and/or yellow squash)
- 3/4 tsp. chili powder
- 1 cup shredded 2% cheddar cheese
- 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro leaves
- 4 (10-in.) burrito size flour tortillas
I like simple meals and snacks but so often our kiddos can be overwhelmed with the greens on theirs plates. This recipe is really unique because it’s everything you love but you’d never expect it all together. You will start by prepping your vegetables.
Melt 1 tablespoon I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter!® Spread in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and cook vegetables with chili powder, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 10 minutes.
Remove from heat and let stand until warm. Stir in cheese and cilantro.
Melt remaining 2 tablespoons Spread and brush one side of each tortilla. Turn tortillas over and arrange vegetable mixture evenly over half of each tortilla. Fold tortillas in half over filling.
You will cook quesadillas on one side and the flip over. Cook until crisp and cheese is melted, about 2 to 4 minutes.
My kiddos never knew that these were loaded with vegetables and with the chili powder and onion it has plenty of delicious flavor!

This looks like a really fun snack to make with my son.
These quesadillas looks so delicious and I will have to make these as a snack item. We usually just have sandwiches, but I need to make something different like this.
We always have a tub of this in the fridge. Baking with it is SO easy and gotta love cilantro recipes. My fave!
This is fantastic. I love these and cilantro in anything.
These look delicious! I love quesadillas!
Quesadillas are such a great kid friendly snack or light lunch. I love how healthy these are!
That looks like a great recipe. I am sure my family would enjoy it.
This is my kind of quesadilla! Loaded with veggies. My simple to go to snack is normally a dip.
My Hubs is out in the kitchen right now making us a quesadilla. It is like the ones they serve at Applebee’s.
These look delicious and simple to make. I have never put veggies in a quesadilla – sounds tasty!
I had never thought of putting vegetables in a quesadilla. That’s such a wonderful idea!
These look really good. I have never made my own Quesadilla before. I can’t wait to make some.
I love quesadillas. These look really good. I would have to do it without the onion, but the rest looks great.
