MAKES 4 SERVING/ TOTAL TIME 25 MINUTES
INGREDIENTS
1 cup chopped cooked chicken breast
1 cup low-sodium black beans, rinsed
2 teaspoons chili powder
¼ cup chopped cilantro
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
4 8-inch whole-wheat flour tortillas
1 ripe avocado
2 tablespoons lime juice
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon salt
METHOD
STEP 1
Combine chicken, black beans, chili powder and cilantro in a medium bowl.
STEP 2
Tear off four 12-inch pieces of foil. Place a tortilla on a piece of foil and evenly spread 1/2 cup chicken mixture and 1/4 cup cheese over half of the tortilla. Fold the tortilla in half, then wrap in the foil. Repeat with the remaining foil, tortillas, chicken mixture and cheese.
STEP 3
Mash avocado, lime juice, garlic powder and salt in a small bowl until chunky-smooth. Transfer to small container with a tight-fitting lid. Before closing the lid, press a small piece of plastic wrap on the surface of the guacamole to prevent browning. Close the container.
STEP 4
Prepare a campfire and let it burn down to the coals. Cook the foil-wrapped quesadillas 4 to 6 inches above the coals, turning once, until hot, 5 to 10 minutes. Open carefully. Stir the guacamole and serve with the quesadillas.
