Since I didn't have anytime last week to post a recipe, I will try to do one today and another later on this week. This recipe was one I created for either Father's Day or Fred's birthday. His favorite color is green, he loves veggies and Tex-Mex is his favorite food. I even really liked it and I don't like veggies.
GREEN QUESADILLAS
package of large flour tortillas
2 cups colby jack cheese, shredded
2 grilled chicken breasts, chopped
coarsely chopped cilantro
coarsely chopped fresh spinach
1 cubed avocado
2 - 3 chopped green onions
lime juice
Butter one side of tortillas with butter and lay in large skillet. Sprinkle half of tortillas with the ingredients in the order listed. Fold over tortillas and cook both sides until lightly brown. Cut into triangles and serve with sour cream, guacamole and the salsa recipe I gave a while back.
This recipe would also be good with grilled shrimp.
TIP: Grill and chop a bunch of chicken breasts at a time. Put about 2 cups in freezer bags and freeze them. When I need grilled chicken for a recipe, I take it straight from the freezer, microwave it for 1 - 2 minutes and it is ready. I do this for Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad in the summer when I don't have time or don't want to cook.
