Chicken and Corn Quesadillas
Cooking the quesadillas together on a baking sheet is much quicker than cooking them separately in a skillet. Adults and more adventurous young diners can jazz up their quesadillas with jalapeño peppers, chopped green onions, or cilantro.
Yield: 6 servings (serving size: 4 quesadilla quarters, 2 tablespoons salsa, and 1 tablespoon sour cream)
