Author: Merry
Serves: 1 - 2
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 tortillas
- ½ cup shredded chicken
- 1 cup spinach, roughly chopped or torn
- ¼ avocado, sliced into ½ inch pieces
- 1 green onion, sliced
- 1 - 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
- ¼ cup shredded cheese

- Butter one side of each tortilla. If you prefer you can spray with olive oil.
- In a small skillet sprayed with oil, saute the shredded chicken with half of the cilantro for 4 to 5 minutes.
- In the meantime, sprinkle half the cheese onto the unbuttered side of one tortilla.
- Layer the spinach, avocado, and remaining cilantro.
- Spoon the chicken onto the tortilla.
- Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and the sliced green onion.
- If using a skillet to cook the quesadilla, melt one tablespoon of butter in the pan.
- Gently lift the loaded tortilla into the pan.
- Put the other tortilla on top and cook.
- Once bottom has browned, carefully flip to other side.
- If using a grill or a griddler, heat on panini setting, then place tortilla onto it.
