CHICKEN FAJITAS QUESADILLAS

You all know my obsession with chicken fajitas… okay any kind of fajitas…. okay, pretty much just  all Mexican food period 😉  And quesadillas are one of those things I love to order when we go out to eat.  They’re easy to eat, fun to dip and top with things, and go great with a margarita!  So for this recipe, I found some great inspiration from Jo Cooks, and combined my love of chicken fajitas and quesadillas!
One of the great things about these quesadillas is that you can make your fajitas any way you want!  I prefer my set it and almost forget it Oven Baked Chicken Fajitas, but you could cook them in a skillet, or on a grill.  You could also toss in some different veggies if you’d like.
Chicken not your thing?  Switch up the protein and use steak, or shrimp, or any vegetarian protein!
