We often find ourselves making quesadillas on a busy evening. They are so easy to make, you can use up whatever is in your fridge, and they require very little cooking time.
The last aspect is very important when you have a hungry husband pacing around the kitchen looking for food to eat! 😉
One quesadilla that will be added to the rotation is this buffalo chicken quesadilla.
They are the perfect blend of creamy and spicy. Plus, you can throw in some tomatoes and peppers to up the nutritional value.
Oh, and it’s cheesy, lots of cheese is a must at our house!
Pair it with some chips and salsa and you have a complete meal ready in under 30 minutes!
These quesadillas make perfect party food. Just cut them into smaller wedges (using smaller tortillas will make this easier), and serve them alongside sour cream and salsa as part of your collection of finger food at your next football party.
They also are a great way to use up leftover chicken. If you don’t have leftovers and you don’t want to cook up more chicken, rotisserie chicken would work well. Have a great weekend!

These look SO good! My problem with quesadillas is that I only like chicken and cheese in mine. So a little chicken and a lot of cheese. So very healthy. :) I hope to one day grow up and be able to enjoy the more adult version of these!
