They ate something new! Yeehaw!

I am tired of the same old food.  You would think that my kids would be too.  Do your kids eat the same meals often or request them often?

We decided to try something new tonight for dinner and we made quesadillas.  Not restaurant type quesadillas, but our kind.  My kids do not enjoy meat unless it is cured and salty.  Chicken was not an option tonight.  Instead we used old fashioned ham (lunch meat).

Here is what we used:

whole wheat tortillas
cheddar and mozzarella cheese
tomatoes (chopped)
old fashioned ham (lunch meat and chopped)

salsa (for dipping)

I spray my frying pan with a little bit of Pam Cooking Spray and cook these on medium heat.  I flip the quesadillas a few times to allow for uniform melting of the cheese.

Let it cool on a cutting board and cut to desired size of slices.  Strawberries were once again requested at dinner and we served the quesadillas with mild salsa.  The kids LOVED this and ate everything.  Yes!  Another recipe that I could possibly experiment with different fillings.

 

It is always nice to try new things and have your kids enjoy it.  They were rewarded with a chocolate chip cookie that I made earlier in the day.  High five Mom of Three!
