These satisfying quesadillas get a smoky flavor from the cheese and pork, sweetness from the sauce, and a crisp crunch from the red onion. The pickled jalapeños offer a twist on a typical barbecue sandwich pickle and add a touch of heat.

3 ounces cooked pulled pork
4 tablespoons bottled barbecue sauce, divided

4 ounces smoked Gouda cheese, shredded (about 1 cup)
¼ cup thinly sliced red onion
Cooking spray
¼ cup reduced-fat sour cream

Toss together pork and 2 tablespoons of the barbecue sauce in a bowl until fully coated. Sprinkle lower half of each tortilla with 2 tablespoons of the cheese. Top evenly with pork mixture and onion slices. Sprinkle evenly with remaining cheese. Fold each tortilla over filling.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
