Bunny Shaped Cheesy Quesadillas (Printable view)

Crispy, cheesy quesadillas shaped like bunnies with colorful veggies and simple decorations.

# What You Need:

→ Quesadillas

01 - 6 large flour tortillas
02 - 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
03 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
04 - 0.5 cup diced bell peppers (red, yellow, or orange)
05 - 0.5 cup sweet corn kernels (canned or cooked fresh)
06 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

→ Decoration

07 - 12 black olive slices for eyes
08 - 6 baby carrots for noses
09 - 6 sprigs fresh parsley or cilantro for whiskers
10 - Sour cream for dipping (optional)

# How To Make:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Using a bunny-shaped cookie cutter or template with a sharp knife, cut bunny shapes from the tortillas. You should obtain approximately 12 bunny shapes (2 per quesadilla).
03 - Place half of the tortilla bunnies on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle evenly with cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, bell peppers, and corn kernels.
04 - Top each filled tortilla bunny with a second tortilla bunny. Brush tops lightly with melted butter.
05 - Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and tortillas are golden brown.
06 - Let cool slightly, then decorate each quesadilla: use olive slices for eyes, a baby carrot piece for the nose, and parsley or cilantro sprigs for whiskers. Press gently so they adhere to the warm quesadilla.
07 - Serve warm with sour cream on the side for dipping.
