Creamy chicken florentine quesadillas

Chicken second courses Mexican cuisine

Quesadillas are a quintessential back-pocket recipe you can pull out when a dinner emergency strikes. But as much as we all love Tex-Mex, it’s nice to have a change of pace sometimes. One run-of-the-mill day, I came up with these Florentine-inspired quesadillas. They’re stuffed with whatever chicken you have on hand (from the local rotisserie or from your freezer stash) and made healthier with plenty of spinach and artichoke hearts. Cream cheese and Parmesan create a melty inside to contrast with the crisped outside. You can tailor them to even the pickiest eaters (trust me, I have a few). If you have persnickety little ones, too, just pull out the artichoke hearts. And yes, you can keep those extra artichokes all to yourself! <br /> <br />Reprinted from 'Eat at Home Tonight: 101 Deliciously Simple Dinner Recipes for Even the Busiest Family Schedule' by Tiffany King with Random House LLC, 2018.
