This strawberry banana breakfast quesadilla is your favorite childhood sandwich totally remixed quesadilla style. Whether you have it for breakfast, lunch or dessert your childhood cravings will totally thank you.
I think I can safely say that part of my life’s work has been dedicated to finding different vehicles to eat nut butter on. As a kid, I gravitated toward the familiar favorites—PB&J, PB & Fluff, and PB & Banana sandwiches. Over the years, my tastes have expanded, and now I’ll spread peanut butter or almond butter on just about anything that comes to mind.
Rice cakes, smoothies, celery, bananas, sandwiches, yogurt, granola, spoons, have been my recent rotation of nut butter vehicles, but really my work has just begun.
This latest and (perhaps greatest?) is a spectacular mashup of a childhood classic – the PB & Banana sandwich (plus strawberries) – remixed quesadilla style. You can rock this bad boy for breakfast, lunch or with a drizzle of chocolate, call it dessert. Bonus – because really, there are so many amazing nut butter and fruit combos, you can use this breakfast quesadilla as a template and let your imagination go wild.
Some other combos to try:
- Apple + Almond Butter + Cinnamon
- Banana + Chocolate Chips + Peanut Butter
- Strawberries + Blueberries + Almond Butter
- Coconut + Almond Butter + Chocolate Chips
- Blackberries + Almond Butter
I guess the real question is what can’t you do with this sweet quesadilla?
