Sometimes a recipe is so unassuming and so basic, I never think to post it here and add it to my recipe collection. But, why should I keep these easy ideas to myself and assume that no one would benefit from this? Even if there are only two of you out there reading this and thinking "Why didn't I think of that?" instead of the other 98% of you thinking "Ummm, duh, I make this stuff all the time!"
Remember this Buffalo Ranch we made back in June? Well, I like to mix it into shredded cooked chicken, layered in between my homemade flour tortillas sprinkled with some cheese, then heated in a skillet for some tasty quesadillas. Hello, easy lunch! But, wait, a perfect appetizer for the football season, too!
By the way, I feel like I have to explain why the quesadillas don't look so "pretty". That's what happens when you use homemade tortillas, instead of the perfectly round store-bought. 🙂 Worth it in every bite!
