Air Fryer Broccoli Cheddar Quesadillas

Lightly charred garlicky broccoli and Cheddar make a delicious filling for these air-fryer quesadillas that both kids and adults will love. If you like, include cubes of ham in the quesadillas. A quick honey-mustard dipping sauce provides a hint of sweetness.

Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 cups small broccoli florets
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 4 (8 inch) whole-wheat tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup cubed cooked ham (optional)
  • cooking spray
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons honey mustard

Directions:

  • Preheat a 6-quart air fryer to 325℉.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add broccoli, garlic and salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is just tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Place 1 tortilla on a work surface and top one half with 1/2 cup cheese, 1/2 cup broccoli and, if desired, 2 tablespoons ham; fold the tortilla in half to close. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, cheese and broccoli (and ham, if using).
  • Working in batches as necessary, coat both sides of the quesadillas with cooking spray. Arrange the quesadillas in a single layer in the air-fryer basket; cook until golden and the cheese is melted, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, stir together mayonnaise and honey mustard in a small bowl. Serve the quesadillas with the sauce.
