Chicken Quesadillas Meal in a Jar Recipe

December 30, 2019 by Jodi Weiss 2 Comments

Thrive’s December monthly specials are the perfect combination of ingredients to make some delicious Mexican food!  Check out all of the goodies that are on sale!

Chicken Quesadillas Meal-in-a-Jar Recipe

All ingredients will be cheaper and are available for free shipping for delivery customers if your order is over $100. This recipe will make 4-6 half-sized quesadillas or 2-3 full-sized ones, depending on how full you stuff them.

Ingredients:
  • 2 T. Thrive Green Chili Peppers
  • 1 c. Thrive Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 c. Thrive Refried Beans
  • 1/2 c. Thrive Tomato Dices
  • 1/3 c. Thrive Onion Slices
  • 1 c. Thrive Grilled Chicken
Directions:
To make jar: Add ingredients to jar in order listed for a prettier jar, add ingredients in reverse order if you want to do heaping servings.
To prepare:  Pour contents of jar into a 4 cup measuring cup.  Add 2 cups of water and let stand for 15 minutes until chicken is refreshed all the way, stirring if necessary.  Drain off any excess water.  Scoop mixture into 10-inch soft tortillas and either fold in half or cover with an additional tortilla.  Cook on a greased skillet for 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.  Let stand for 5 minutes after cooking to thicken up.
 

Shopping List

Makes 13-14 quart jars

Add these items to your monthly delivery and you should be able to make 10-12 jars worth of meals.  Sometimes the product settles and you won't get a full 12 cups out of a #10 can or certain ingredients have a few less servings.I'd rather have you plan to have some extras than be sad about not having enough!
  • Thrive Green Chili Peppers (1 pantry can)
  • Thrive Cheddar Cheese (1 family can)
  • Thrive Refried Beans (1 family can)
  • Thrive Tomato Dices (2 pantry cans)
  • Thrive Onion Slices (1 pantry can)
  • Thrive Grilled Chicken (1 family can)

Remember feel free to customize your delivery if you already have some of these items on hand or want to substitute a different product or brand. Also make sure to adjust your delivery each month for the new recipe so you don’t get sent the same items again!

    Love the idea of meals in a jar and all of these recipes. But I’m only one person, so how do you figure what a one serving portion is? Please help. Thank you.

    These are now on a regular rotation at my house. They are super easy and so much healthier than how I made them before.
