Uncooked Tortillas

My sister in law makes the best tortillas from scratch, but there is no way that I have that kind of time. So, I found these Uncooked Tortillas that are a great substitute. They are really easy to cook. They are great for Quesadillas, Fajitas, Tacos, Wraps, etc.

I have found them at Costco, some Grocery Stores, Walmart.

For quesadillas, I usually just add cheese, chicken, salsa. Makes a great lunch!

Quesadilla- Patty's way.

1 medium flour tortilla(s)
chopped onion (to taste)
chopped, seeded jalapeno (to taste)
2oz low-fat Montorrey cheese shredded
1/4 cup grilled chicken breast

In a heavy skillet, heat one flour tortilla. Spread shredded cheese on the tortilla and top with 1/2 the chicken mixture. Sprinkle another 1/4 cup cheese over the chicken and top with another tortilla. When bottom tortilla is lightly brown and cheese has started to melt, flip quesadilla and cook on the opposite side.

You can serve it with guacamole or pico de gallo on top. I'll share a recipe for both soon.

Enjoy!

*I forgot to add in my introduction post that I am currently battling weight loss. I'm on the Weight Watchers program so my recipes will have the Weight Watchers points on them for those looking for some new low fat recipes.

Quesadilla - Katie's way

We all make quesadillas. So, this is nothing special, just my quick and easy way to make them. It's a favorite of mine for a quick lunch.

Here are my ingredients:

Mission flour tortillas

Kraft or Sargento Mexican blend shredded cheese

La Victoria green taco sauce (medium)

La Victoria red taco sauce (medium)

Tapitio hot sauce (if you're brave)

A container of the Just Chicken - breast strips from Trader Joes cut into small pieces

And here's how it goes together:



Microwave on high for 1 minute to 1 minute 10 seconds...or until cheese is nice and melted. You can peek between the tortillas to check.

I do think it would be fun if we all shared how we make quesadillas, just to see how different we all are. So, if you're inclined, please share!

Bon Appétit!
