Quick and Easy Chicken Quesadillas

Ingredients:

• 1 tub cream cheese spread
• 430 ml. jar salsa (we prefer mild)
• 1 1/2 cups cooked chicken cut small
• 1/4 cup red pepper
• 1/4 cup green pepper
• 1 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese
• 8 6 inch tortillas

Directions:

Spray 2 8 inch square pans. Spread a tortilla generously with cream cheese and place in pan. Spoon salsa over. Sprinkle 1/4 cup chicken, 1/4 cup cheese, and some of peppers over tortilla. Repeat twice more, then cover with another tortilla. Cover and bake at 400 degrees F. Uncover last 5 minutes.

For just the two of us this will make two dishes, one of them to freeze. You could add more pepper, but for us it would be too"peppery".

Servings:	2 to 4 per pan, depending on what you have with it
Time:	25 Minutes Preparation Time 35 Minutes Cooking Time

Due to the fact that they can be meatless they can also work for our no meat night!
