Get Your Head in the Game with This March Madness Green Recipe!

Whip up these colcannon quesadillas for your March Madness, green, Irish celebrations!

Whether you’re watching the games or opting to celebrate March in pure green bliss, these colcannon quesadillas hit just the spot!

As a product of Ireland meeting Mexico, these quesadillas are stuffed with colcannon – a classic Irish mixture of mashed potatoes and cooked greens. They can be assembled within minutes and are perfect finger food for game watching!

Ingredients:

• 2 cups cooked mashed potatoes
• 3/4 cup tightly-packed cooked and well-drained spinach, kale, cabbage or chard, chopped
• 1/4 cup minced scallions
• Salt and black pepper
• 4 large spinach (or whole grain) tortillas
• Choice of green sauce: mint chutney; picante sauce; green Tabasco sauce

Directions: 

1. In a bowl, combine the potatoes, spinach, scallions, and salt and pepper to taste.  Mix well to combine.  Heat the mixture in a skillet on top of the stove or in the microwave.
2. Divide the mixture evenly over half of each of the tortillas. Fold the tortillas over and press down lightly.
3. Place 1 or 2 of the quesadillas in a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Cook until lightly browned on both sides, turning once. Keep warm while you cook the remaining quesadillas in the same way. Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve with desired sauce.
