I have been craving avocados in EVERYTHING so I made one of my favorite quesadillas for dinner. This chicken avocado quesadilla is amazing and with only a few ingredients, you’ll have this ready to go for your dinner in no time.
I wanted to make sure the shell stuck to the ingredients so I added some cheese to the top and bottom of mixture. If you have a quesadilla maker you can use that. If not, use a skillet. Both work as well as the other.
