This recipe comes from my Betty Crocker's Quick & Easy Cookbook. It's a glorified quesadilla, and it is soooo good! I made it for dinner last Saturday night and we all loved it. I got home from church the next day and whipped it up again for a quick and easy lunch. I used the Costco tortillas that you cook yourself, which makes any tortilla recipe better. :) Anyway, hope you enjoy!
