Servings 2 Quesadillas

Ingredients
  

  • 2 8" Tortillas
  • 1 cup Shredded Chicken cooked
  • 4 slices Bacon cut into 1" pieces
  • 1 cup Shredded Cheese 1/2 cup of two different types or 1 cup of one type
  • Ranch Dressing
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or butter

Optional

  • green onions diced
  • 1 tbsp ranch seasoning Hidden Valley

Instructions
 

  • Cut your bacon into 1" cubes and then add to a pan and cook until crispy. Once it is done, add to a paper towel lined bowl or plate to absorb the excess oil.
  • In another pan on medium low heat, add half of your oil and heat up the pan. Once it is hot, add your tortilla.
  • Add 1.5 tablespoon of ranch dressing to the bottom of the tortilla and spread it around.
  • Add 1/4 cup of cheese to just one half of the tortilla, followed by half of your cooked chicken. This step is optional, but you can sprinkle the chicken with ranch seasoning.
  • Add half of your bacon followed by another 1/4 cup of cheese. Fold over your tortilla using a spatula and pat down gently so that the tortilla stays folded. You can cover your pan so that the cheese melts faster. Cook for about 2 minutes and then check the bottom of the tortilla to make sure it is not burning.
  • Once the cheese is starting to melt, and the bottom of the tortilla is golden brown, flip it over so that the other side of the tortilla can brown.
  • Once both sides are golden brown and the cheese is melted, remove from heat and add to a plate. Serve with a side of ranch dressing.
