shrimp quesadillas

Servings 2

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup salsa
  • 1/4 cup greek yogurt, plain
  • 1/4 cup jalapeno slices from a jar, roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup sliced black olives, chopped
  • 10 large shrimp- peeled, deveined, cooked -tail off cut into 1/2 inch pieces
  • 4 medium flour tortillas, low carb optional
  • 1 cup shredded colby jack cheese

Instructions

  • Combine salsa and sour cream in a bowl. Spread half of the mixture on 1 tortilla shell.
  • Heat a large non stick pan over medium heat. Place tortilla with mix in the pan. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup shredded cheese. Top with half of the shrimp, olives, and jalapenos. Top with another 1/4 cup cheese. Evenly spreading out all of the ingredients. Place another tortilla shell on top.
    Cook for about 5 minutes or until bottom is slightly browned. *Flip quesadilla over and cook for another 3-5 minutes. Remove from pan and cut into 4 pieces.
    Repeat with remaining ingredients and 2 tortilla shells.
  • *I use a plate to flip the quesadilla over. An alternative, perhaps easier and safer way to do this is to only put half(or 1/8 of ingredients) of everything on 1 side of a tortilla shell and fold it in half to cook making it easier to flip over. This would mean making 4 separate "half" quesadillas instead of 2.
