Recipe


Ingredients

  • 250g frozen chopped spinach, defrosted & squeezed dry
  • 2 cups chopped barbecue chicken
  • 170g tub semi-dried tomatoes, drained 2 cups grated cheese
  • 4 large wraps

Method


  • Heat a flat sandwich press or panini press.
  • Mix the filling ingredients together in a large bowl.
  • Lay out 4 sheets of baking paper big enough to sit the wraps on.
  • Divide the mixture into 4 and then spread it onto half of each wrap.
  • Use the baking paper to fold the wrap in half and then place the parcel, baking paper and all, onto the plate of the sandwich press.
  • The baking paper makes it a bit safer for fingers to place and remove the quesadilla, but I would still suggest that this part is done by an adult.
  • Close the press and cook until the cheese has melted and the quesadilla is brown and crisp.
  • Cut the quesadilla in half to serve.
  • Note: You can use whatever fillings you like in your quesadilla.
