Quesadillas are a staple in our house and this Chicken and Corn version is a favourite.
We always have wraps or tortillas in the pantry and these quesadillas have chicken, corn, cheese and Mexican seasoning (optional) which we usually have on hand too.
They are are so quick to make and the kids love them! I have served them with a salsa here to add some extra flavour and veggies.
