Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked turkey, shredded or diced

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

4 whole wheat tortillas

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup ranch dressing (optional)

1/2 cup diced bell peppers (optional for added color and nutrition)

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon onion powder

1 tablespoon olive oil or cooking spray

Salsa or guacamole for dipping (optional)

Instructions
 

Prep the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the cooked turkey, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder. If using, mix in the diced bell peppers and ranch dressing for extra flavor and creaminess. Stir until well combined.

    Heat the Pan: Place a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil or spray with cooking spray. Allow the pan to heat up for a minute.

      Assemble Quesadillas: Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous amount of the turkey and cheese mixture evenly over half of the tortilla, and then fold the tortilla over to create a half-moon shape. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and filling.

        Cook Quesadillas: Once the skillet is hot, place one quesadilla in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown and crispy. Carefully flip the quesadilla with a spatula and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side until melted and crispy.

          Repeat Cooking: Remove the cooked quesadilla from the skillet and place it on a cutting board. Cut into wedges and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining quesadillas.

            Serve: Serve the turkey and cheese quesadillas hot with salsa or guacamole on the side for dipping.

              Enjoy these fun, cheesy turkey quesadillas that kids will absolutely love!
