Chicken Quesadillas
I didn't really use a recipe. It's just refried beans, seasonings, chicken and cheese on homemade tortillas. I can post the tortilla recipe if anyone wants it. Just let me know.
Whole Wheat Tortillas
2 c. whole wheat flour
1/2 t. salt
1/4 c. canola oil
2/3 c. warm water
1/2 t. baking soda
Combine water and oil. Add flour, salt and baking soda. Mix just until blended. Divide dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll into balls. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest at least 30 minutes. Roll very thin and cook on hot skillet or cook in tortilla press. *I used mostly white flour in the quesadillas I made because I wasn't sure how everyone would like wheat. I always make 100% wheat for my family. I also mix my dough in my mixer and use a tortilla press.

Dijon Chicken Pasta Salad
1 package Betty Crocker® Suddenly Salad® classic pasta salad mix
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons cold water
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 cup cubed cooked chicken
Vegetables (optional)
Empty Pasta mix into 3-quart saucepan 2/3 full of boiling water. Gently boil uncovered about 12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
While pasta is cooking, stir together seasoning mix, oil, water and mustard in large bowl. Stir in any vegetables and chicken.
When pasta is done, drain & rinse in cold water. Shake to remove excess water. Mix into seasoning, chicken & vegetables. Refrigerate any remaining salad.
To Freeze: Combine seasoning mix, oil, water, cooked chicken and mustard in a freezer bag.
To Serve: Cook pasta (as above) and mix into chicken mixture.
**Note: Vegetables are optional, but I used tomatoes and cucumbers and loved it. Sometimes I add olives. Carrots & broccoli are also good, but if you use them, they need to be slightly cooked (so that they are not raw but are still crunchy).
Sides: Hard rolls, corn on the cob, jello, fruit, etc.
