  • 1 tablespoon oil for frying

Instructions

  • Heat some oil in a frying pan over medium heat. When hot add the folded tortilla to the pan. Cook until it's golden on both sides and the cheese is melted.

  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can use any leftover turkey or chicken meat for this recipe. If you want to make it from scratch, you can just cut turkey/chicken breast/tenderloin into small cubes, season with salt, pepper, and cook in a pan.
  • Calories = 1 quesadilla (1/4 of the recipe). This is only an estimate! You can count 1 1/2 tortillas per person.
