- Top with another tortilla.
- Snap top shut and cook about 5 minutes or until crispy and brown.
- Repeat with remaining ingredients.
- Serve with sour cream and salsa.
- You can also cook this in the oven at 350 F until brown or place half of ingredients on a tortilla, fold in half and brown on each side in a large skillet.
- I sometimes saute a small amount of mushrooms in the skillet the chicken was cooked in and put them on the quesadillas.
- I also wanted to add that this can be made vegetarian using this recipe for "chicken" made from Textured Soy Protein Chunks, this is a recipe from Chef Deborah http://www.vegsource.com/talk/recipes/messages/47153.html Saute the "chicken" in oil until browned and proceed with recipe.

I am a vegetarian and I love to cook. I have been trying to incorporate whole wheat into my baked goods and have been eating much healthier foods. I really don't have a favorite cookbook, I mainly try different recipes out on the internet.
