For some reason I always forget about quesadillas.
It’s funny too because I almost always have at least the most basic ingredients in my house for them.
Like corn tortillas and shredded white meat chicken.
And limes and avocado and greek yogurt.
While all of the above items are delicious on their own, they’re even better when you combine them all together.
It’s a great way to get a little bit of everything into one simple meal – veggies, lean protein, healthy fats, dairy and whole grains. Plus it’s made in minutes! My favorite kind of dishes 🙂
