BBQ Chicken & Pineapple Quesadillas
The perfect quick and refreshing weeknight dinner! The combination of BBQ chicken and pineapple tastes DIVINE! If you want to keep this quesadilla vegetarian, sub chicken for mashed chickpeas tossed in BBQ sauce. Just as good! This dish can easily be prepped ahead of time and assembled very quickly. The pineapple gives it such a juicy and fresh flavour. Definitely a favourite around here!
