Apple Chicken Quesadillas

INGREDIENTS
2 medium tart apples, sliced
1 cup diced, cooked chicken breast
1/2 cup shredded fat free Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup fresh or frozen corn, thawed
1/2 cup chopped fresh tomatoes
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 (8 inch) (8 inch) flour tortillas
3/4 cup shredded lettuce
3/4 cup salsa
6 tablespoons fat free sour cream



DIRECTIONS
In a bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Place about 3/4 cup on half of each tortilla. Fold tortilla in half over filling and secure with toothpicks. Place on a baking sheet coated with nonstick cooking spray. Bake at 400 degrees F for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.
Carefully turn quesadillas over; bake 5-8 minutes longer or until golden. Discard toothpicks. Cut each quesadilla into three wedges; serve with lettuce, salsa and sour cream.

Every year we go apple picking and I am always looking for recipes to make with the apples. Last year I made this recipe for my brother's birthday and I made it again this weekend for my husband's sister and husband.
