"floo·zie \ˈflü-zē\: a usually young woman of loose morals." Thus a Food Floozie is not a woman who can be seduced by virtually any man, but rather a woman who can be seduced by virtually any food (other than sushi).

Pepper 'n' Onion Quesadillas
My friend Wendy came over for dinner the other night -- my first guest in the new apartment!
We were just hangin' around, indulging in BFF time, so we didn't need an elaborate dinner. Quesadillas seemed to be just the right thing -- quick and easy, and not a distraction from our vital conversation about life, men, and the mysteries of each.
I sliced some gorgeous yellow and orange peppers, as well as chopping some green onions, and then sauteed them in a bit of oil with some red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt. All fresh fruits and vegetables are kosher, so there's no need to look for any certifications. (Though Dan, from the highly entertaining The Haggis and The Herring, tells me "that many kosher authorities/caterers etc., won't serve raspberries because they're too difficult to search for bugs." And fyi: bugs aren't kosher.)
Domestic cheeses that are pre-packaged are also acceptable, so I sprinkled some shredded CoJack cheese onto whole wheat tortillas, added the vegetables, sprinkled on a bit more cheese, then folded the tortillas over to fit two into the skillet at the same time.
Cook them over medium-high heat 'til the cheese is melted and the tortillas are golden brown. A little salsa, a little sour cream, a little guacamole and you've got yourself some dinner!
And not only are these ideal for a casual Saturday night supper with a best friend, but they'd also be perfect Super Bowl food, too, cut into smaller portions and served to hungry hordes ....

We love quesadillas. It's our favorite weekend lunch! Those peppers do look absolutely wonderful! mmmmmmm...it all looks good!
Not only does this look delicious, but it would also keep the hubs from kissing me all night, haha :)
Quesadillas are our go-to meal! These look great, thanks!
I actually have a cute little quesadilla maker that gets a lot of love from me! Thanks for sharing this!
Delicious. I love quesadillas. So simple, yet so good.
Those peppers are so pretty! We make the folded over quesadillas at our house too. They are so much easier. I haven't made them in a long time though. I need to do that again soon. Thanks, Mary!
Yummm-o, sweetie!!! I just purchased a bag o'peppers from Costco yesterday - they were so beautiful, I had to buy them. Now I know EXACTLY what to make ... THANKS DEAR!!!!
