To assemble the quesadillas lay the tortillas onto a flat surface. Spread ½ cup of the chicken mixture on one side of each tortilla. Next add ½ cup of the shredded cheese on top of the chicken. Fold over the tortilla and secure the edges with 4 toothpicks.

Notes
- We do not recommend using corn tortillas. We tested this recipe using corn tortillas but they kept falling apart.
- Any melty cheese would work here, but I like Monterey Jack.
- Hamburger or refried black beans can easily be subbed. We would suggest refried beans over regular beans as regular beans would just fall out.
