I love food and now with my healthier versions of my all time favorite dishes, I can still enjoy it.

Chunky Quesadilla

So tonight me and the hubs had these really good quesadillas. Yummers! They were fun, fast and easy to make.   I usually make them with regular tortillas and tons of cheese but these call for whole wheat tortilla's more meat and veggies and less cheese, enjoy!

Chunky Quesadilla


Ingredients:
2 Chicken Breasts Cut in strips w/fat trimmed
1 cup Finely Shredded Mild Cheddar Cheese
1/2 Green Bell Pepper Sliced in strips
1/2 Red Bell Pepper Sliced in Strips
1 tsp Parsley Flakes
1 tsp McCormicks Roasted Garlic & Herb Seasoning
1/2 tsp Onion Powder
Cooking Spray

Instructions:
Heat pan on medium and spray cooking spray into it.
Drop strips of chicken breast into pan along with the parsley flakes, onion powder and McCormick Seasoning and stir. Allow chicken to cook evenly by continuing to stir it. Add both red and green peppers and stir together. Cook for about 5 minutes or until peppers and chicken are cooked through.
Section the chicken stir fry into 6 sections. Take each tortilla and place the stir fry on one side of the tortilla, add cheese and fold in half. Place quesadilla on pan and press with spatula flip over once it has browned a bit and brown the other side. Cut in half and enjoy.
