E-Z  Crab Quesadillas

  • One 1 & 1/2 to 2 lb. fresh crab cleaned
  • Six tortillas  Best with home-made Organic White Flour Sourdough Tortillas
  • 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter
  • Three cups shredded cheese
  • bit of chopped chives/green onion/
  • optional bit of chopped jalapeno pepper

Make sure crab is at room temperature before starting.  Brush tortillas with butter on both sides.  Partly brown in 350°-400° oven.  Turn over for even toasting.  In my oven this takes about 5 minutes or less on each side.  Remove from oven.  Sprinkle cheese evenly on each tortilla.  Return to oven until melted.  Remove from oven top evenly with crab and greens.
