Chicken Quesadillas

This is the only recipe I got from the Body For Life cookbook that we loved and still make to this day. It's easy and delicious.

Boneless, skinless chicken breast (I usually used 4 large breasts to feed about 8 people)
Salsa
Flour tortillas
cheddar or cheddar/jack cheese

Cut up the semi-frozen chicken into bite-sized pieces, about 1/2-1 inch square. Place in a skillet with about 1 C of salsa. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink. You can shred up/smash the chicken into smaller pieces at this point if desired. I usually shred it so it spreads in the tortilla more easily and the quesadilla is not as thick.

Place a flour tortilla on a warm non-stick skillet, place cheese on half of tortilla, place chicken mix on the cheese, fold tortilla in half and cook til golden brown. Flip and cook other side until golden and cheese is melted. Repeat until all the chicken is used.

Serve with more salsa, sour cream, refried beans, etc. YUM!!
