Hola to Mexican!

I am a sucker for Mexican food! The latest creation coming out of my chickens I cooked earlier in the week are these wonderful Chicken Quesadillas! Now I made one as the recipe says, with a corn tortilla (which tasted the best) and then one with a low carb/high fiber tortilla (still good but not as mexican-y? as the corn tortilla version. )

Here is what you will need:

(adapted from Women's Healthy May 2011-but different)

• 1 oz. Mozzarella Cheese
• 1/2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1/4 cup onion
• 1/2 cup frozen corn, thawed
• 1 pinch black pepper
• 1/2 cup diced white meat chicken
• 1 tbsp chopped cilantro
• 4 six inch corn tortillas
• nonstick cooking spray, olive oil

1. Heat olive oil over medium high heat and saute onion for 2 minutes
2. Add corn and pepper, saute for 1 minutes
3. Add chicken and saute another minute
4. remove from heat and stir in cilantro
5. Divide cheese over 2 of the tortillas
6. divide meat mixture between the 2 tortillas
7. top with remaining tortillas and press down to hold
8. Spray a large nonstick pan with olive oil cooking spray, warm quesadillas over medium heat for 5-6 minutes, flipping halfway.

Serve with refried beans (watch your serving size!) and salsa for dipping, Enjoy!

Have a great weekend!
