We had some left-over turkey tonight, and had some whole wheat tortillas so I made my first quesadilla:

• chopped cooked turkey meat (but you could use any kind of left over meat, eggs or seafood
• 1/2 chopped tomato (you can also add peppers, mushrooms, onions, etc.)
• tex mex or shredded low fat cheese
• 1 whole wheat tortilla

I just put a layer of turkey, topped with tomato and about 1 Tablespoon of cheese.  Fold in half.  Toast in a grill or fying pan sprayed with a little olive oil.  This took about 3 or 4  minutes in total to prepare and cook – home cooked fast food – great tasting without all the fat and sodium.  I was really hungry so didn’t take a picture! I’ll take one next time.  I enjoyed it so much the first time, I made it again and this time took the above picture.

TIP:  I bought a turkey breast, baked it in the oven, then put the meat in the fridge (and some in the freezer), so that I have cooked turket meat ready any time I need it.  Easy and fast when you are hungry.
