CHORIZO AND MANCHEGO CHEESE QUESADILLAS
Rumor has it that the second Zaar World Tour is starting soon and I'm quickly trying to post recipes in preparation for the next international eat-a-thon (Hee hee). Not sure if you would consider this more Spanish or Mexican. For those not familiar, Manchego cheese is a golden sheep's milk cheese native to Spain which comes in three forms based on aging. For this recipe, the two younger varieties would work best. Be sure to use a cured (not fresh) chorizo. You can make these using full sized tortillas or on tiny ones for a delicious appetizer. (10/18: I have updated the directions to make this a bit clearer.)

Steps:
- To prepare the onions, lightly brush them with the teaspoon of olive oil. Cook on a grill pan or indoor grill for one or two minutes until the onions have started getting a little soft and have a few grill marks. Remove from grill and break slices into rings.
- To prepare the chorizo, place a skillet over medium high heat until hot, not smoking. Add the chorizo and cook about 1 minute on each side. Drain the sausage on a paper towel to remove the excess grease.
- To assemble the quesadilla, start the tortilla that will become the bottom. Top with a tenth of the cheese. Sprinkle with 1/5 of the onions, then the sausage. Cover that with another tenth of the cheese and top with another tortilla.
- Repeat step 3 with the next 8 tortilla to assemble a total of 5 quesadillas.
- To cook the quesadillas, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Brush lightly with some of the tablespoon of olive oil. Place quesadilla in the pan and cook for 2 or three minutes until bottom tortilla is browned and the cheese on bottom has melted and begun to dribble. Flip the quesadilla and continue to cook an additional 2 or three minutes.
- Remove quesadilla to plate, cover with clean cloth and place in oven while preparing the others. Before serving cut in halves or quarters.

Steps:
- Heat the lard in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the ground pork, ancho powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, cinnamon, clove and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring and breaking up the meat, until brown, about 4 minutes. Add 1/2 cup water, bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl.
- Lay a tortilla on a work surface and top evenly with 1/2 cup Cheddar. Add 1/4 of the chorizo, 1/4 of the beans and some jalapeno. Fold the tortilla in half to enclose fillings. Repeat with remaining tortillas and ingredients.
- Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in a large non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Cook the quesadilla, flipping once, until the cheese is melted and it is golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board and repeat with the remaining quesadillas.
- Cut into triangles and serve with guacamole, salsa, chopped scallions and sour cream.
SQUASH AND CHORIZO QUESADILLAS
These quesadillas are perfect for fall. They are stuffed with butternut squash which are at their peak this time of year. You will have some leftover beans. Add them to any salad for extra protein, make some homemade nachos and incorporate the beans into the topping, or turn them into a black bean burger patty. The options are endless for leftover beans!

Steps:
- Cook the chorizo in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 4 minutes. Remove to a large bowl, reserving the pan drippings.
- Reduce the heat under the skillet to medium and add the squash, 1/3 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt; gently toss. Cover and cook until the squash is fork-tender, about 4 minutes. Uncover and cook until the liquid evaporates, 1 to 2 more minutes. Add the beans, chile powder and a pinch of salt and cook, tossing, until warmed through, 2 to 3 minutes. Add to the bowl with the chorizo.
- Meanwhile, whisk the lime juice and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small bowl. Put the kale in a large bowl and pour the lime dressing on top. Massage the dressing into the kale; season with salt.
- Divide the squash mixture among the tortillas, leaving one half of each tortilla uncovered. Top with the cheese. Fold over the other half of each tortilla. Return the skillet to medium heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add 2 of the quesadillas and cook, flipping halfway, until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and repeat with the remaining quesadillas.
- Cut the quesadillas in half. Divide among plates and serve with the kale salad, pico de gallo and sour cream.

CHORIZO QUESADILLA
I use my (recipe #290716) recipe for this but packaged chorizo or even left over taco meat will work great in this. All measurements are approximate and you should adjust according to your tastes and what you have on hand.
