Hemp-Infused Cheesy Chicken Quesadilla
Beyond just cheese and chicken—discover the delightful crunch and health boost of hemp hearts in every bite of this quesadilla.
Servings: 2
Ingredients
Cooked shredded chicken (about 1 cup)
1 tsp mixed spices (consider cumin, paprika, chili powder, etc.)
1 cup shredded cheese (your choice, e.g., cheddar, mozzarella, Monterey Jack)
2 tbsp Salvare Hemp Hearts
1 tbsp butter
2 tortillas (8-inch size)
Instructions
Heat a pan over medium heat and melt the butter.
Once the butter stops foaming, place a tortilla in the pan.
On one half of the tortilla, evenly spread half of the shredded cheese.
Sprinkle Salvare Hemp Hearts over the cheese layer.
Distribute the shredded chicken on top, and sprinkle with spices.
Top with the remaining cheese.
Either fold the tortilla over to close or top with the second tortilla.
Cook until the bottom is golden and crispy, then flip, adding more butter if needed.
Once both sides are crispy, remove from the pan.
Cut the quesadilla into four pieces. Enjoy!
Dairy-Free Alternative: Looking to keep it dairy-free? Opt for plant-based cheese and butter while keeping the hemp hearts for a dose of extra protein and Omega-3s.
Double-Duty Hemp: Serve these quesadillas with a side of Hemp Guacamole or Hemp Seed Salsa for an all-around hemp-infused meal that packs in even more nutrients and flavor.
