I found this recipe for Steak and Goat Cheese Quesadillas With Corn and Tomato Relish over at Picky Palate, which is an awesome blog that I have just recently found! Jenny has wonderful recipes for both savory meals and fantastic sweets and she has such creative and simple ideas, go check out her blog if you haven't already!
These are filled with tender steak, creamy and tangy goat cheese, and I also added sharp cheddar cheese because it is my favorite and I just love th flavor of it! These were really tasty, flavorful, hearty, filling and a simple meal to throw together with very few ingredients. The colorful corn and tomato relish was absolutely delicious and so simple and my favorite part! The corn was super sweet and crunchy, the tomatoes were juicy and the cilantro gave it tons of flavor. This relish would be tasty with lots of different things and even just by itself.
