  • 1/2 cup diced onions (optional)
    • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
    • 1/2 tsp paprika

    • 1/4 tsp baking powder
    • A pinch of salt

  • Instructions:
    1. Prepare the Tortilla:
      1. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and water until smooth.
          1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a bit of oil.
          2. Pour a small amount of the batter into the skillet, spreading it out to form a thin, round tortilla. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter to make more tortillas.
        2. Prepare the Filling:
          1. In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken with garlic powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper.
          2. If using, sauté the diced bell peppers and onions in a skillet with a bit of oil until softened.
        3. Assemble the Quesadilla:
          1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of oil.
          2. Place one tortilla in the skillet. Sprinkle with cheddar and mozzarella cheese, then add the seasoned chicken on top. If using, add the sautéed bell peppers and onions.
          3. Place another tortilla on top and press down gently. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden brown and crispy.
