Chicken and Spinach Quesadillas seem to be the perfect dinner.
I love chicken. I love spinach. I love tortillas. And cheese, oh how I love thee.
(I miss cheese. It won’t be long until I get to rekindle my relationship with cheese. Story is, I suspect Tyler has a dairy intolerance, so I don’t eat much of it these days.)
Put it all together…and droooooolllllll……….
