Ingredients

  • 8 grain-free tortillas
  • 1 lb. grilled chicken or chicken shreds
  • 1/2 small onion, chopped
  • 1/2 small red bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 cups Daiya dairy-free cheese shreds I used the Mexican blend
  • 4 T. BBQ sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat a cast iron skillet over low heat. Put a tiny amount of bacon fat on the bottom of the pan and spread it around.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, toss together the chicken, BBQ sauce, onion, and red bell pepper.
  • Place one tortilla in the skillet and let it warm up. Place scoops of the chicken mixture on to half of the tortilla. Add a handful of cheese on top.
  • Fold the tortilla in half and cook for 1 minute. Flip and cook for 2-3 more minutes. Remove from the skillet and place the quesadilla on a serving plate.
  • Repeat with the remaining tortillas, chicken mixture, and cheese. Enjoy warm!
