Italian Quesadillas

Y'all. I promise I'm trying to remember to post stuff on the correct days. I will explain my tardiness better on Sunday when I post about the previous week. ;)

ANYWHO!

Today (Yesterday) is Tutorial Tuesday! Today I am going to share one of my family's favorite dinners: Italian Quesadillas! This recipe was actually taken from the side of a Classico Alfredo Sauce jar a few years ago and modified by me! :D Below you will find the instructions to make it!

Italian Quesadillas

Ingredients:

1-2 chicken breasts or the equivalent in another form of meat (ANY meat works GREAT in this recipe. :3), chopped
1/2 bell pepper, chopped
1/4 yellow onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
My Alfredo Recipe
Shredded Cheese of any kind (my favorite is the Colby Jack mix. :3)
Tortillas (I usually use flour ones, but corn ones might work well too. :) )
Optional Ingredients:
- Peppers
- Lettuce
- Tomatoes
- Just about anything you want.

Directions:

1) Chop up your meat, and season it. :3

I gave the scraps to Chrissy and Andrew. :3 

2) Chop up your bell pepper, onion, and garlic! (I didn't have any garlic when I made this... It's OK. I only cried about it a little bit. :( )

 I got cool colorful bell peppers this time! :D 

I decided yellow would be a nice contrast to the beef. ;)

3) Cook your meat! When it's nice and brown, add your chopped veggies. :3 Then cook it until it's dead. :)

4) Make some of my awesome Alfredo Sauce!!! :D

5) Shred your cheese (or buy already shredded cheese....) and gather your ingredients! It's time to throw these bad boys together! (If you have peppers or lettuce or whatever, this is when you grab those. :) )

6) In the tortilla, put your meat and cheese (and whatever else you want) on one half. Then cover it with the Alfredo Sauce! :D Then fold it in half, and make another one until you have made as many as you can (or want)! :D

 7) When all of your quesadillas are folded and ready for the pan, heat a skillet to medium heat. You can grease the pan however you want, but I don't usually do that because no grease/butter makes the tortillas crispy and the quesadillas cook faster. :) Cook them for about 2 mins on each side or until they are toasty and brownish! :D

8) EAT THEM. :) They are SO GOOD. I promise. :)

Don't they look amazing?! :D I can never eat just one. :3
