BBQ Turkey, Corn & Mango Quesadillas

serves 6 (2 wedges per serving – 3 pts per serving)

  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup corn
  • 6 ounces thin-sliced deli turkey, cut into strips
  • 2 Tbsp bbq sauce
  • 3/4 cup shredded cheese
  • 4 8” tortillas
  • 1 mango, peeled, pitted & sliced
  • 2 Tbsp chopped cilantro
  1. Saute the onion and corn together for a bit in a pan to soften them up, set aside.
  2. Place turkey in bbq sauce, toss to coat.
  3. Place one tortilla in skillet sprayed with non-stick spray and top with cheese, turkey, onion, corn, mango, cilantro and another tortilla.
  4. Cook as you would any quesadilla…
  5. Cut each quesadilla into 6 wedges.

I don’t have a picture for this but we LOVED this!  We threw it together for a quick meal the other night and really enjoyed all the flavors.  I’m not sure I’d change a thing from this recipe.  A winner for sure!

So how'd it go?

So how'd your menu planning go?  Was my menu helpful? 

Be honest - it isn't fair to waste your time or mine if it isn't worth me posting it.

We weren't very thrilled with any of the new recipes we tried but we did enjoy a few of the ones we've already had again and were reminded why we saved them!

Our next menu will have a few more new ones to try again, but sorry - I won't have links because they're hard copy (a.k.a. old fashioned) recipes.  Of course, if they turn out good I'll blog them to share!

Well stay tuned!  Another menu is coming soon!

Menu

So here it is…my menu.  I decided against posting a grocery list because…well…it’s hard and I don’t want to make more work for myself.  I’d have to seperate out the recipe stuff from what we need, etc etc etc…it’s just easier for all of us if I don’t post it.  But without further delay…my menu and recipe links.  If there is no link, it’s a “make it up as you go” sorta deal.

All the recipes are WW-friendly.

Feedback is welcome and MUCH appreciated!
