Chicken Quesadillas

Chicken Quesadillas

Most people won’t need a recipe for quesadillas so this is more of a reminder to make them as another dinner idea! My kids love these quesadillas! They are picky eaters so I add only limited ingredients. For those of you who are more adventurous, you can add lots of veggies, too. These would be great with big chunks of red onion and slices of avocado. I use thighs for these but you can use chicken breasts if you prefer.
