Ingredients

  • 2 lavash pita wraps
  • olive oil or any cooking spray
  • ⅓ cup fat free mozzarella
  • ⅓ cup Fat Free Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 tsp ranch seasoning
  • Optional: turkey pepperonis or roasted chicken / turkey
  • To dip: fat free ranch, sriracha, or honey mustard

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking oil. Once warm, add a pita to the skillet.
  2. Layer mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, chicken (or another meat), and seasoning onto the pita.
  3. Place the top pita overtop the cheese, chicken, and seasoning layer then flip the quesadilla.
  4. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
  5. Serve with fat free ranch, sriracha, honey mustard, or warm marinara.

Notes

  • If you'd like to bake your quesadilla, assemble and put on a parchment lined baking sheet. Spray with a little cooking spray to help get the pita nice and golden and bake at 425°F for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • Best served fresh, so I recommend enjoying right away rather than attempting to prep in advance. If you do have leftovers, however, you can store wrapped in tinfoil for up to 3 days. Reheat in a toaster oven or back on a skillet to keep the pita crispy.
