From our skinny table to yours ...

Quesadillas ... one of those delicious, guilty pleasure foods we all can't seem to get enough of. But order them out and you're likely to receive a 1000 calorie portion of greasy cheese covered chicken! No thank you!

Our version transforms this calorie packed appetizer into a delicious veggie packed dinner you can feel good about eating & serving your family. We pack these quesadillas with sautéed sweet potatoes, bell peppers and onions and layer in fresh cut mango, roasted red peppers, tomato chunks and grilled chicken breast. Of course, it wouldn't be a quesadilla without the cheese :) We layer in a 1/4 cup of reduced fat cheese to melt each delicious quesadilla together but still keep the calorie count in check!

We make these quite often and always change up the fruit and veggie combinations. Feel free to do the same but definitely try this one as the flavors are absolutely delicious together!

Hope you enjoy :)
