ZUCCHINI QUESADILLAS

A quesadilla is a tortilla typically filled with beans and shredded cheese then folded before being toasted or fried. Our version features cheese and cooked vegetables. Sour cream, shredded lettuce, sliced avocado, and bottled salsa make great accompaniments to quesadillas, so serve them on the side.

CHICKEN QUESADILLAS

This is a great recipe for parties. I freeze the leftovers; they reheat quite well. The zesty chicken and cooked peppers are a succulent delight when mixed with the melted cheeses. Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve with sour cream and salsa.

CHICKEN ZUCCHINI QUESADILLAS

I had the best quesadillas at a restaurant in Vermont while on vacation and I wanted to duplicate them myself. This is what I cam up with and I think it's pretty close. It is a great way to use up all those zucchini. I bake my quesadillas in the oven, but feel free to make them any way you like. Make sure that you serve with fresh pico de gallo and sour cream for the full experience. Enjoy!

LEFTOVER CHICKEN & VEGETABLE QUESADILLAS

This is a great way to use leftover chicken and get the family to love vegetables. Cauliflower is a nice extra to add. Vary the vegetables to suit your taste . Zucchini is a nice addition as long as you don't cook it too long. Salsa and sour cream are important additions to give that extra flavor. I used whole wheat tortillas but there are so many to chose from - pick your favorite. Instead of sour cream try whipped Cottage cheese with a pinch of sugar added. I used mixed Cumin Gouda & Cheddar cheeses - use your favorite cheese. The recipe may be doubled. Serve with a green salad
