“Left-overs” Chicken Quesadillas

As a new mom, it is almost impossible to have time to cook dinner every night, let alone eat dinner.  I find myself trying recipes that are quick and take more shortcuts than ever.  I bought a chicken rotisserie breast and made some roasted potatoes and asparagus for a side which was the perfect wholesome and easy meal.  I had some leftover chicken breast and definitely did not want to waste it so I looked in the fridge and threw together some ingredients to make the perfect left-over dinner, Chicken Quesadillas.  You can make this with chicken, steak, vegetarian.. basically whatever leftovers you have.  I do not have a quesadilla-maker but I do have a panini press which worked out perfectly.

Ingredients (can vary based on what left-overs you have)
  • left-over chicken cut into small squares
  • cheddar cheese
  • salsa
  • sour scream
  • avocado sliced thin
  • large wraps (use corn tortilla for gluten free option)
Directions:
Lay wrap flat and layer chicken, cheese, avocado, salsa and sour cream on one half.  Fold wrap to close over all ingredients.  Put in panini press for about 3 minutes until all ingredients are hot.  If you do not have a panina press, simply fry on pan for 3 minutes each side. Enjoy!
