I have another way to use up some of your Thanksgiving turkey leftovers- these green chile turkey quesadillas.  My kids and husband really love these and they are super quick and easy to make!!  These are also great because you can bury and hide all sorts of things in there and they will never know!!  Gooey cheese fixes all.

Yields

Use leftover turkey (or chicken) to make these Green Chile Turkey Quesadillas. Filled with gooey cheese, zesty green chilies and toasted in a crispy tortilla!

3 cups shredded co-jack cheese (or whatever blend of cheese you prefer)

In a large bowl combine the turkey, green chilies, onion, garlic powder and cheese. Spread a heaping 1 cup of filling over half of the tortilla then fold in half and gently press down. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

Heat a large skillet over medium low heat and toast each side of the quesadilla until golden brown (about 2-3 minutes per side).

Top each with desired toppings and serve immediately.
