Directions:
1. In a small skillet, give a few sprays and heat over medium heat. Lay one shell in pan then add cheese, drizzle of sauce, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper to taste. Cover with second shell and cook till quesadilla is toasted on both sides. Cut into 4 wedges.

2. Assemble salad with lettuce, diced tomatoes, avocado, mexican corn, green chiles, and tortilla strips. Drizzle dressing over salad. I like to use the quesadilla as a scoop for the salad.

Personal Notes:
This can be changed easily for this recipe. For some heat use hot sauce instead of mild sauce and can add chopped Jalapenos. Adding black beans and grilled chicken is a good source of protein, chicken would be good if cooked with taco seasoning.

The recipe is for a single serving so I recommend making on taco nights so all ingredients will be used up.
