Super Easy Chicken, Bacon, Black Bean Quesadilla...

1 burrito size flour tortilla
1/3 cup black beans. rinsed and drained
1/3 cup canned chicken breast, drained
1/2 cup shredded cheese
1 tbsp real bacon pieces

Heat frying pan over medium, fold tortilla over, stuffed with ingredients. 3 or so minutes on each side.

using the brands I used (in today's diary):
518 calories, 37 grams protien, 19 grams fat.

And my kids love them too (expect I make theirs with soft taco sized tortillas). We often eat them when the husband works nights. I top with salsa.
