Ingredients
  

4 large flour tortillas

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or regular yogurt)

1/4 cup honey (or maple syrup)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup mixed fresh fruits (such as strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, and banana), sliced

1/4 cup granola (for a crunchy topping)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish, optional)

Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Beat with a hand mixer or whisk until smooth and creamy.

    Assemble the Quesadillas: Place one flour tortilla on a clean surface. Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.

      Add the Fruit: Layer a mix of the sliced fresh fruits evenly on top of the cream cheese layer. Be creative with the arrangement for a beautiful presentation!

        Top It Off: Spread another layer of the cream cheese mixture over the fruits and place a second tortilla on top to form a quesadilla. Press down gently to compact the layers.

          Cook the Quesadillas: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Carefully transfer the quesadilla into the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until it’s golden brown and crispy. Carefully flip it over and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side.

            Slice and Serve: Once both sides are nicely crispy, remove the quesadilla from the skillet. Allow it to cool slightly before cutting it into wedges.

              Garnish: Sprinkle with granola for added crunch, and if desired, dust lightly with powdered sugar. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for an inviting touch.

                Enjoy: Serve your fruity fiesta quesadillas warm or at room temperature. They can be a delightful breakfast, a sweet snack, or a colorful dessert!
