Chicken Quesadillas (South Beach Style) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 (8 inch) whole wheat tortillas
    1 cup reduced-fat cheddar cheese or 1 cup monterey jack pepper cheese, shredded
    2 (6 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts, precooked and thin-sliced
    1 avocado, pitted, peeled, and thinly sliced
    2 scallions, thinly sliced (green onions)
    1/2 cup salsa
    salt and black pepper
Preparation
    Heat over to 200 degrees F.
    Heat 1 tortilla in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until warm, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with one-quarter each of the cheese, chicken, avocado, scallions and a pinch of salt and pepper.
    Cover and cook until the cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board, fold tortilla in half, and place on a baking sheet in the over to keep warm. Repeat to use remaining ingredients.
    Cut each quesadilla into 3 triangles and serve with salsa.
