Brussels sprouts and sweet potato quesadillas are a unique and delicious combination of flavors, providing a hearty and satisfying meal.
You know what I like? Going to the grocery store and finding a selection of already spiraled and shredded veggies. Veggies like Brussels sprouts, zucchini, carrots, and sweet potatoes. It opens up an entire world of possibilities. And frankly, who has time to shred and spiral all these vegetables?
Look, go to the store, buy some shredded veggies, and make a quesadilla. Genius, right? Or lazy, call it whatever you’d like.
However, if you cannot find the pre-shredded veggies, it’s easy enough to use the shredding attachment on your food processor or simply hand shred the veggies using a good old fashioned box grater.
I happen to love the combination of Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes.
Do I even need to post a recipe? Just cook up some shredded veggies with some chopped spinach and cheese. Done. And this is my Meatless Monday post for this week.

This is very interesting. I am just so used to the classic cheese quesadillas and never thought it has a lot of possibilities. Would really love to try this. Thank you for sharing.

I wish I could find pre-spiralized vegetables at my grocery story. I've never been able to find them around here, so I bought a spiaralizer. I actually really like using the spiralizer, but I really intensely dislike having to clean it afterwards.

Why not use a bunch of shredded vegetables especially with cheese (either vegetarian or vegan) - great idea.
