Mega Stuffed Pork Quesadillas

Mega-Stuffed Pork Quesadillas

We like quesadillas because they’re super yummy, but it’s not the only reason. We also enjoy experimenting in the kitchen and coming up with deliciously different ingredients to toss in-between two flour tortillas. This time around we got a juicy and tender assist from Smithfield® Marinated Fresh Pork. Yes, this without a doubt “Real Flavor Real Fast.” The Peppercorn & Garlic Pork Tenderloin provided lots of star-studded yum and paired well with the other not-so-shabby fresh ingredients. And you know what else? I got everything I needed for this quick weekday meal at our local Walmart. This is one the easiest no-fuss meals ever! The Smithfield® Marinated Fresh Pork comes fully seasoned, all you have to do is roast it in the oven, no worries, and no problem. Then when the timer goes off the fun begins, start to finish in 30-minutes. I chopped up the pork, and layered it with the rest of the good stuff, and there you go. Dinner is served in 30 minutes. Thank you, Smithfield®!

      This is about the best quesadilla I’ve ever seen! I love the avocado on top for the smooth creaminess.

      These quesadillas look so good. I usually make chicken quesadillas. I even add grilled onions too. I know what we are having for dinner tonight. Pork quesadillas!

      This sounds like my kind of dinner! I love quesadillas, too, and I’ve never thought about using pork loin as a filling. This needs to show up in my house…and soon. Thanks for sharing! #client
