Bruschetta Quesadilla – [Trader Joe’s ingredients]

Balsamic Brushetta Quesadilla

Bruschetta is a favorite, easy, go-to of mine. If I’m ever needing a quick snack, an easy dinner, or just am craving something saucy [literally every day..] then brushetta is many times on the menu.

A Trader Joe’s recently came to Jacksonville [thank you, Goddddd!] and I have been hooked ever since. My parents used to grocery shop at Trader Joe’s when I was growing up, so I’ve been a fan pretty much forever. When I was in college, WVU didn’t have a Traders, so I was jumping for joy when one came to Florida shortly after we moved here.

There are many ways to utilize bruchetta, my favorites include:

  • On a toasted baguette
  • Baked with chicken
  • Baked with veggies
  • On crackers

As you may know, Dj and I have been moving for the past few weeks. We’re finally almost fully settled in our new home, which is super exciting, but also super stressful. If you’ve ever moved, you probably understand the hardship of your kitchen. Everything is all packed away, you don’t have a ton of food, and you need something quick and easy you can just throw together.

Even though this is how the meal came together, I found my new all time favorite way to eat brushetta. I’m obsessed. OBSESSED. I want to eat this everyday.
