on a baking sheet. Brush the tops of the tortillas with the reserved
butter.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes or until the tops are
golden brown. Let rest for 5 minutes before cutting into quarters.
Place 3 small radicchio leaves on each plate. Fill one with sour cream,
one with guacamole, and one with salsa. Place three triangles of
quesadilla on each plate. Sprinkle with a confetti of chopped green and
red bell peppers.
