Ingredients

2 cups shredded chicken
4 ounces bacon cooked to crispy and crumbled (about 4 slices)
1 cup cheddar cheese
4 ounces cream cheese softened
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons sour cream
3 tablespoons ranch seasoning mix (1 packet Hidden Valley Ranch seasoning)
2 large tortillas
½ tablespoon butter

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine the chicken, bacon, cheddar cheese, cream cheese, mayonnaise, and ranch seasoning.
Mix until everything is completely combined and the mixture is creamy.
Put ½ of the mixture in the center of each tortilla and spread the mixture on half of the tortilla to the edges. Gently fold the tortilla in half.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Melt the butter in the skillet then add the quesadillas into the pan. Let cook for 2-3 minutes or until the the tortilla is golden brown, then flip and cook the other side 2-3 minutes.
Remove the quesadillas from the heat and cut each one into 3 triangles. Serve immediately.

Notes

Substitutions:

Chicken: If you have leftover turkey, try it in these quesadillas instead of chicken!
Cheddar cheese: Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack are both great substitutes for the cheddar.

How to Store: Save leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.

How to Reheat: These quesadillas can be reheated in the microwave in 30 second increments, or cover with tin foil and place into the oven to reheat.

How to Scale: This recipe can easily be halved for a smaller portions. It can also be doubled, but you'll need to cook them in two separate batches unless you have a large skillet or griddle that you can use instead.
