These potato, greens, and goat’s cheese quesadillas offer a sophisticated twist on a classic Mexican-inspired favourite. By combining tender cubes of spiced potato with the sharp, peppery bite of mustard greens and creamy goat’s cheese, you create a satisfying texture that is far more substantial than a standard cheese toastie. The addition of a vibrant salsa verde, blitzed with fresh greens, provides a zesty lift that cuts through the richness of the melted Monterey Jack cheese.
This vegetarian dish is an excellent choice for a quick midweek supper or a relaxed weekend lunch. Each tortilla is fried until crisp and golden, ensuring a delightful crunch that contrasts with the soft, savoury filling. Serve these wedges warm with the remaining salsa for dipping, perhaps accompanied by a crisp side salad or a dollop of cool soured cream to balance the gentle heat of the chilli.

Ingredients for Potato, Greens, and Goat Cheese Quesadillas
325ml 1/2-inch cubes peeled Yukon Gold potatoes (about 2 medium)
2 teaspoons chilli powder
200g (packed) coarsely grated hot pepper Monterey Jack cheese (5 to 170g )
325ml jarred salsa verde (tomatillo salsa)
4 2/3 cups coarsely chopped stemmed mustard greens (from 1 bunch), divided
4 8-inch-diameter flour tortillas
90g chilled fresh goat cheese, coarsely crumbled

How to make Potato, Greens, and Goat Cheese Quesadillas
Place baking sheet in oven and preheat to 135°C. Steam potatoes until tender, about 8 minutes. Place in large bowl; sprinkle with salt, pepper, and chilli powder. Toss to coat. Cool potatoes 15 minutes. Mix in Jack cheese. Meanwhile, blend salsa and 2/3 cup (packed) greens in mini processor until greens are finely chopped.
Arrange tortillas on work surface. Divide remaining greens between bottom half of each. Top greens with potato mixture, then goat cheese and 2 tablespoons salsa mixture for each. Fold plain tortilla halves over filling, pressing to compact. Brush with oil.
Heat large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place 2 quesadillas, oiled side down, in skillet. Brush tops with oil. Cook until quesadillas are brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to sheet in oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining 2 quesadillas.
Cut each quesadilla into 3 or 4 wedges. Serve with remaining salsa.
