Southwest Style Chicken Quesadillas
"We found a great supplier in Los Angeles who begins with a flour tortilla filled with queso—specifically, Monterey Jack and Pepper Jack. Chunks of white-meat chicken (seasoned with onion, garlic, and sea salt) combine forces with the gooey cheese to create a savory flavor sensation, which also delivers 23g of protein per single Quesadilla. More tasty and textural interest is added by black beans and a variety of veggies, including corn, spinach, red bell peppers, and jalapeno peppers. Finally, a handful of seasonings (cilantro, paprika, cumin...), along with a quick grilling, give our new Southwest Style Chicken Quesadillas the final touch. Correction: the real final touch is yours, when heat it from frozen in the microwave, skillet, or conventional oven!"
