Baked Quesadillas

1 cup strips of cooked chicken
1 cup shredded monterey jack cheese
1/2 cup Ranch dressing
1/4 cup diced green chiles, rinsed & drained
4-6 (9in) tortillas, heated
Salsa, sour cream, guacamole (optional)

Combine meat, cheese, ranch, and chiles in bowl. Place about 1/2 cup mixture on each tortilla; fold in half to seal. Put quesadillas on baking sheet. Bake 350 degrees for 15 min. until cheese is melted. Top with salsa, sour cream and guacamole, if desired.

Sidenote: I got this yummy recipe from a friend about 2.5 years ago. I have meant to make it many times but never became brave enough. I finally made it last night. It was really easy and really yummy. I was quite surprised how good it tasted and it wasn't spicy hot like I thought. I folded them in thirds instead of in half and put a tooth pick in them before I baked it. They turned out really good.

Just a quick tip for ya'll. It's really easy to make the sliced jalapeƱos that ya'll buy in a glass jar from the supermarket. makin' em yourself allows you to save a little cash and adjust the heat. Buy about six of the green jalapeƱos. slice'em into coins about 1/4 in thick. remove many of the seeds else you get high heat. simply put the slices in a glass jar and add a mixture of 40 percent water / 60 percent white vinegar to cover the slices. let'em soak for about a week and they will be just like the store bought.
