Roast Poblano Peppers directly over a gas flame or under the broiler, turning occasionally, until blackened on all sides. Place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let steam for 10 minutes. Peel, seed, and dice.
In a bowl, combine all Pork ingredients and toss to coat. Spread pork and Diced Yellow Onion in a single layer on a large baking sheet.

Top with remaining 4 tortillas to create quesadillas. Lightly press down.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and tortillas are golden brown.
