BBQ Chicken Quesadilla
Pin
I realized something recently_ I can put almost anything in a quesadilla and my kids will eat it. Two warm tortillas sandwiching melted cheese and whatever fillings they love, it’s the perfect handheld food that they can eat in wedges for dinner, in their school lunch or even as a last minute snack.
We’ve been making so much Crock Pot BBQ Chicken lately that it seems like we’ve got leftovers of it in the fridge at all times. Never wanting to waste a morsel of food, I’ll go to great lengths to reinvent dinners utilizing what we ate the night before in order to make something that’s not recognized as just boring old leftovers. Quesadillas are a foolproof way to do that.
No matter whether you’ve got a bit of BBQ Chicken, Chicken in a Crock Pot or Slow Cooker Pulled Pork from the night before, quesadillas are a great way to use what you’ve got and make a meal your kids will totally dig.
