Salmon Bulgogi Quesadillas with Blueberry Salsa

[heart_this] · Sep 13, 2011 · 21 Comments

Salmon Bulgogi Quesadillas

Salmon bulgogi quesadillas with blueberry salsa and plenty of ooey gooey melted cheese.

When I make tacos I tend to keep them on the lighter and healthier side but invariably while I am going over the recipe, I start thinking about loading up on cheeses and sour cream, etc. Luckily there is an easy solution to get the best of both worlds and that is to make sure that there is enough left over from the tacos to use to make some quesadillas!

Salmon Bulgogi Quesadillas
At their base, quesadillas are made from two layers of tortillas that are filled with cheese and toasted until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese melts and gets all nice and ooey and gooey. Even in this simple form they are hard to resist but you can also add things like meats, salsas, herbs, etc. Pretty much any meat that can be used in tacos will go well in quesadillas and I was looking forward to using the leftover salmon bulgogi from the salmon bulgogi tacos with blueberry salsa in cheesy quesadillas! In addition to the salmon and the cheese I added some of the blueberry habanero salsa to the quesadillas for some heat and some onion and cilantro relish to freshen things up a bit.

Salmon Bulgogi Quesadillas
Quesadillas are commonly served with a sides like salsa and sour cream for dipping. Although dipping can be fun, I sometimes like to just smother the quesadillas in the salsa and sour cream for maximum effect. 🙂

    Kevin, I have to share something with you. Almost every recipe you post is one I would love to cook and eat. I really mean it. This Quesadilla is no exception. Why do you live so far away? You could be my neighbor and we could plan our dinners together. Think about it! Colorado is really pretty.
    Greetings form the Rockies.

    what we call quesadillas are ONE tortilla fold with cheese or other fillings like zuchini flower or huitlcoche (a fungus of the corn), usually the quesadillas are prepare with freshly hand made tortillas or with dough filled like a turnover and then deeply fried in oil.

    Ellie: Gochujang is a Korean chili paste that adds a nice flavour and some heat to the bulgogi marinade. You should be able to find it in a local Asian grocery store and you can order it online from places like Amazon. If you cannot find it though you could easily skip it as the blueberry habanero salsa will add plenty of heat.

    If you are not careful, you might just take my crown away for the use of leftovers. I am the Queen on finding new ways to use up what I have in the fridge. Maybe we can share the crown…you can be the King! 🙂
