Fajita Quesadillas - Tortillas are filled with seasoned veggies and lots of cheese. A quick dinner for any night of the week. {The Girl Who Ate Everything}I don’t cook on Fridays or Saturdays. Sunday through Thursday I cook…a lot. Fridays we usually have date night. Not always, but 99% of the time. I’m a firm believer that you need to date your husband. And Saturdays we take the kids somewhere to eat. But every once in a blue moon, if one of the kids is sick or if we don’t feel like taking our circus out, I’ll whip up something really easy. You can barely call it cooking. It’s a step above eating boxed mac n’ cheese but nothing strenuous.

These Fajita Quesadillas are exactly one of those no-cooking night meals.

My husband, who doesn’t consider it a meal unless meat is present, didn’t even mind that these were meatless. You could definitely add chicken if you want.
