Method

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 180°C (350°F). An oven or non-stick skillet can also be used.

  2. In a small bowl, combine the sugar-free ketchup and mustard until smooth.

  3. Spread the sauce evenly over one side of each tortilla.

  4. Sprinkle half of the grated cheese over one half of each tortilla.

  5. Arrange the lean sausage or ham evenly over the cheese, then top with the remaining grated cheese. The cheese helps hold the filling together once melted.

  6. Fold each tortilla in half to create a half-moon shape, gently pressing the edges together.

  7. Place the quesadillas into the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 4–5 minutes at 180°C (350°F), or until the tortillas are crispy and golden and the cheese has completely melted.

  8. Slice each quesadilla into wedges and serve immediately while hot and crispy.

Chef's Tip

For extra flavor and freshness, add thin slices of tomato, red onion, spinach, or jalapeños before folding. Pair with Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for an extra boost of protein.
