chicken and mushroom quesadillas

my mil gave me a quesadilla maker for christmas so we used it last night. it took me almost 1 1/2 hours to cut up all the ingredients to make enough for 8 people - the girls were studying for mid-terms so i didn't want to distrurb them and of course dave was glued to the xbox - although he did thake the maker out and clean it for me - we invited my mil over to since she gifted it to us and my fil is out of town. well by the time i was done cutting i was too tired to make them lol so mil made them - the quesadilla maker is pretty cool - except not when i am feeding all of us - it only makes one at a time so i think that i will stick to using it when i am just making some for dave and i for lunch - i also made guacamole but did not post the picture cuz it looked like baby poo in the plate lol!!!!!

chicken and mushroom quesadillas

this is the recipe i use to feed 7 of us

6 chicken breast - sauted with garlic salt and cayenne pepper to taste, cut into small pieces when cooked

4 garlic cloves, minced

12-16 white button mushrooms, sliced

3 roma tomatoes, chopped

1/4 white onion, chopped

shredded cheese - i buy the 8 cup bag

tortillas - i like to use flour for the kids and sometimes splurge on the tomato basil ones for mine ;)

i bake mine in the oven instead of stove top only because i have to make so many for one meal so i make two on a cookie sheet

lay 2 toritllas out in cookie sheet and layer cheese, chicken and veggies on top. place 2nd tortillas on top and press down - put in a 400 degree oven until brown

serve with spicy store bought salsa and chips and homemade guacamole

guacamole

6 avacados, chopped and slightly mashed

1/2 cup finely chopped onion

3 roma tomatoes, chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

2 tablespoons lime juice
