Makes 4 Quesadillas  

 Ingredients

1 package soy chorizo

1 jalapeno pepper

4 flour tortillas

4 oz goat cheese (1/2 a log)

1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

Preheat a skillet to medium heat.  Add in 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil, the jalapeno pepper and the chorizo.  Cook for about 15 minutes or until the chorizo is browned.  I like to use Trader Joe's soy chorizo.  It's absolutely delicious and a big hit with everyone.  Now that the chorizo mixture is cooked, remove it from the heat as we prepare the quesadillas.  Lay your flour shell flat.  Crumble 1 oz of goat cheese throughout the tortilla.  The idea is to have just enough cheese to make the quesadilla creamy, soy chorizo is the real star of this dish.  Preheat a large pan to medium and add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil.  Place the tortilla into the pan.  As the cheese begins to melt, add the chorizo to 1/2 of the tortilla and fold the other half over it, making a 1/2 moon.  Cook it for an additional 2 minutes on each side.  Repeat with the remaining tortillas.  Enjoy!
