Greek Style Chicken Quesadillas
October 17, 2012 by Aimee • 12 Comments
Are you a huge fan of Greek food!?! Greek Style Chicken Quesadillas are one of my hubby and I’s favorites. They’re real fresh, full of flavor, and totally easy to throw together. I usually put together bean and cheese quesadillas for my sweeties (they’re a little more traditional).
A few years ago I had a surgery and my sweet friends loaded us up with meals. One of my friends lived an hour away and planned without me knowing to have a nearby friend deliver Zoe’s Mediterranean food to my porch. That meal lead me into a forever obsession with any recipe with a Mediterranean bend. Greek Style Chicken Quesadillas totally fits the mold!
