Okay, I know there are a MILLION versions of chicken quesadilla recipes out there.  This is just what I usually do when I make them at home.  It is quick, easy, and delicious!

Chicken Quesadillas

10 flour tortillas (I get the fresh tortillas from the local HEB Market.  They are fabulous!)

Chicken fajita-style meat

Mexican-blend Shredded Cheese

Mushrooms, sliced (about 8 ounces)

Tomatoes, seeded and diced

Olive oil

A few cloved of garlic, minced

Saute mushrooms and garlic in a little olive oil until mushrooms are browned.  Remove from skillet and set aside.  Place tortilla in skillet, layer in some cheese, meat, tomatoes, mushrooms, a little more cheese, and top with another tortilla.  Heat on medium heat until the tortilla starts to brown and is a little crisp.  Flip and do the same on the other side.  Repeat until you’re out of ingredients.  Serve and eat while warm.

I usually get the frozen, pre-cooked and seasoned fajita meat that I can just heat up in the microwave.  You can cook your chicken from scratch if you want but cutting it into strips and sauteing in olive oil with some onions and peppers if you want.  I’ve just never been that industrious and am quite happy with my pre-packaged fajita chicken.
