Speedy Salsa-Chicken Quesadillas


Prep Time: 10 min
Total Time: 20 min
Makes: 4 servings, six wedges each





1/2 cup TACO BELL® HOME ORIGINALS® Thick 'N Chunky Salsa
2 Tbsp. MIRACLE WHIP Dressing
1/2 tsp. chili powder
8 TACO BELL® HOME ORIGINALS® Flour Tortillas
3/4 lb. cooked boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced
1 cup KRAFT Mexican Style Shredded Four Cheese

MIX salsa, dressing and chili powder; spread evenly onto tortillas.

LAYER chicken and cheese evenly on half of each tortilla; fold in half to enclose filling.

HEAT large skillet sprayed with cooking spray on medium heat. Add quesadillas, two at a time; cook 4 to 5 min. on each side or until lightly browned on both sides. Repeat with remaining quesadillas. Cut each quesadilla into three wedges to serve.

My Opinion: I've made these quesadillas twice already and I love it. I'm also making this for dinner tonight for me and Aaron, his grandparents, his Mom and Ed and Alexandria.

I've made quesadillas so many times before this recipe and the salsa mixture makes a world of difference. The quesadillas have a much better taste now.

I've also found that when I buy chicken breast (cook and cut it up) it taste way better than the pre-cooked chicken strips.

I actually ended up making those tonight for his family instead of last night.

The quesadillas were a hit, everyone loved them.

Sometimes I still bake chicken in aluminum foil that Kevin you about. I just made spinach quesadillas the other morning(for breakfast);)
