- 2 scallions, finely chopped
- 1 jar Stonewall Kitchen Spicy Corn Relish

- Preheat the oven to 375° F.
- Line two baking sheets with parchment or foil. If using foil, brush or spray with olive oil or non-stick spray.
- Arrange two tortillas on each pan side by side. Sprinkle 1/8 of the Monterey Jack cheese or Queso Fresco over each tortilla.
- Dot each tortilla with 1/4 of the goat cheese, top with 1/8 of the Monterey Jack or Queso Fresco, sprinkle with 1/4 of the green chilies, 1/4 cup Spicy Corn Relish, cilantro, jalapenos and scallions. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Top with the remaining tortillas, pressing down on the filling to adhere.
- Cover the quesadillas loosely with a piece of foil and bake for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
- Remove from the oven and allow them to sit for a few minutes to cool.
- Cut the quesadillas into 6 pieces with a pizza cutter or kitchen scissors.
- Garnish the wedges with a spoonful of the Spicy Corn Relish and a drizzle of sour cream. Serve with an additional bowl of Spicy Corn Relish for dipping.
