Cafe Rio?

One of our favorite places to eat in Utah is Cafe Rio/Costa Vida (for me they are pretty much the same). While we've lived in the great North West, there have been plenty of times we wished there was one close by. And the last two times we've gone home we have made sure to eat there at least once during our stay. (When we arrived for Thanksgiving break we asked Matt's sister to bring us some to the airport when she came to pick us up. That's how badly we were craving it.)

Well, on Sunday we were going to have quesadillas. And then we decided to make it pork quesadillas and see if we could copy the sweet pork quesadillas from Cafe Rio. I found a recipe from this site: Favorite Family Recipes.

We're pretty sure it's not the exact same as the restaurant, BUT it was delicious! The Mr. actually said he thought it just might taste better. Guess we'll have to test it out some time in the future. Also, I try to make a Sunday dinner that's better than the last, he said this was his favorite Sunday dinner so far. I think it might be hard to beat.

We definitely recommend the recipe!

*Clarification: So to make the quesadilla, we placed a tortilla in a large frying pan over medium heat. Covered it in as much cheese as you'd like, then covered the frying pan with the lid. We let all the cheese melt then added the pork on top before folding the tortilla in half, and removing it from the heat. Pretty much we just tried to copy what we've seen done at Cafe Rio and Costa Vida. And I think it turned out pretty well. :)
