Buffalo Chicken Quesadilla

Working 40 hours a week in retail, you don't always have the time or opportunity to cook a full meal. Enter the quesadilla. Great for a quick throw together lunch or supper.

Ingredients (for 2 quesadillas):

4 flour fajita shells
1 can chunk chicken breast
3 tablespoons Texas Pete buffalo sauce (or your favorite buffalo sauce)
1 cup shredded cheese (or if you don't have any on hand just use 4 slices of american singles)

Cooking Directions:

1. Heat a small pan on medium high heat. While the pan is heating up, mix together the chicken and buffalo sauce in a small bowl.

2. Place one fajita shell in center of pan. Cover shell in cheese. Add half of chicken. Add a little more cheese and top with another shell.

3. Brown both sides of quesadilla until cheese is melted on the inside. Remove from heat and cut into halves (or quarters if you prefer).

There you have it! Just add a side salad and some chips and salsa and you have dinner in a bout 5 minutes that includes protein, dairy, bread, and vegetables. Not too shabby (and cheap too!).
