This recipe was shared with us by Kristen Doyle during her days with Kids Cuisine. “A couple of years ago, Family Fun magazine posted a snack recipe that caught my eye. It is a recipe for s’mores quesadillas that I make several times a month now for snack. It is simple, the kids can help to make it, we always have the ingredients on hand, and it is a tasty snack that they love.
You might have seen these South of the Border S’Moresbefore, but this version is dairy-free, and yes, you can make the recipe vegan, too! Just use a vegan brand of marshmallows, like Dandies or Sarah’s Candy Factory. The recipe uses jumbo marshmallows, but you can use a handful of mini marshmallows instead. For dozens of chocolate chip options, see our dairy-free chocolate chip guide.
