Notes and Talking Story
- Equally good wrapped or toasted as a quesadilla.
- A great way to use leftover Thanksgiving turkey.
- I use mixed nuts from Costco, which includes pecans, pistachios, almonds and cashews, and no salt.
- No one in the house likes celery so I have (grudgingly) made it optional.
- Another great flexi recipe.
- Don't have dried cranberries? Swap in raisins, currants, or even chopped up dried apricots.
- Allergic to nuts? Consider adding sunflower seeds or pepitas (pumpkin seeds).
