Brie & Apple Quesadillos


Tested this out on my nieces and family & recieved mixed reviews.  For those over 30 yrs very good and those under 10 yrs preferred cheddar cheese.. ce la vie :)
I myself have to admit that next time I would grate the apple vs slicing and I would not use butter brie cheese because it melts before you get a chance to place it on the the tortilla.  
But all in all, very good reviews received by all!

1 T Dijon mustard
2 t apple cider
3 (10-inch) flour tortillas
6 ounces Brie cheese, rind removed & cut into 1/4" thick slices
1 Fuji apple, cored &cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices 
3 cups arugula
3/4 t pepper

Preparation
Combine mustard and cider in a small bowl; stir well.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Spread each tortilla with about 1 1/2 teaspoons mustard mixture.

Place 1 tortilla, mustard side up, in pan. Arrange one-third of cheese slices over half of tortilla; cook 1 minute or until cheese begins to melt.

Arrange one-third of apple slices over cheese; top with 1 cup arugula. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Fold tortilla in half; press gently with a spatula.

Cook 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove from pan. Repeat procedure twice with remaining 2 tortillas, cheese, apple slices, 2 cups arugula, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.

Cut each quesadilla into 4 wedges.
