    Fix yourself a dang quesadilla.

    Ingredients

    • 1 chicken breast, cut into bite sized pieces
    • 1 tsp Chipotle powder or other Mexican spice mix
    • 8 mushrooms, sliced into 1/3's or 1/4's depending on size
    • 1 oz of frozen spinach, cut into small pieces
    • 1 scallion, chopped finely green and white parts
    • 4 tbs mexican blend shredded cheese or your favorite cheese for Mexican food
    • 2 Tortillas
    • toppings such as salsa, guacamole, sour cream

    Directions

    1. Preheat the grill to medium.
    2. Sprinkle the chipotle or other seasoning on the chicken pieces.
    3. Cut the vegetables.
    4. Take a piece of aluminum foil and spray with no stick spray for the grill. it will keep all of the little veggies and chicken from falling through the grill grates.
    5. Add the chicken first and let it grill for a minute then add the mushrooms. After 2 more minutes add the onions. When the meat and mushrooms are about finished add the spinach, it only needs 30 seconds.
    6. Remove chicken veggie mixture from the grill and set aside.
    7. Spray the tortillas with no stick spray and throw them on the grill, when they start to get some color flip them over.
    8. As soon as you flip the tortilla sprinkle 1/2 with cheese then add the chicken and veggie mixture. Fold the 1/2 of tortilla without cheese and meat mixture over the 1/2 with the mixture and remove from grill. This is a good place to use a large spatula if you have one. Cut them into smaller pieces.
    9. Plate them and and add the toppings.

            I would really love to know where the nutrition facts gets their info from because it never comes close to the 2 I use. I don't think it divides by servings. It seems to be adding salt. Very frustrating when you are trying to publish healthy recipes and the nutrition facts aren'y even close.
