    chicken and spinach quesadillas recipe

    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.)

      Anything WISCONSIN!
      Cheese curds have to top our list.
      We moved to California 6 years ago & only people who have had both can realize that there is a serious difference in the cheeses.
      Did you know that most California cheese does not melt the same way Wisconsin cheese does? Yet another reason California is an alternate reality 🙂

      I just have to say I need to win this shirt for my 19 yr old son. He used to say “Mom, a windy day is a great day for a grilled cheese sandwich” then next day it was “a sunny day is a great day….” You get the idea.

      My favorite cheese is colby jack – just can’t get enough of it.

      Thanks for having the contest,

      This is not about the contest, but rather about lactose intolerance. National Dairy Council recently held a forum all about lactose intolerance, and there is good news for you: You can still enjoy cheese! Make your favorite quesadillas with natural cheese such as Cheddar, Colby, Monterey Jack, mozzarella and Swiss. These cheeses are low in lactose.

      I am a fan of any cheese- apples or crusty bread with brie, this amazing organic creamy white cheddar that makes the best mac and cheese, marscapone added to homemade marinara or risotto to be creamy goodness, a nice bite of sharp cheddar as a snack,,,, oddly enough, despite my (and my hubbys) obvious love affair with cheese, I have one son who detests cheese- for years, he would pull it off pizza… now, after much coaching, we’ve gotten him to at least eat some melted cheeses…

    238. jenny says

      August 19, 2010 at 5:53 am

      Best quesadilla: 1-2 Chicken breasts, small dice, cooked with diced peppers and onions and seasoned with chili powder, s&p, cumin, and a little cayenne… mexican blend shredded cheese… the peppers and onions really help extend the chicken- especially with 2 teen boys and a hubby!

    239. Rhonda says
