If you like Reubens then you will like this recipe. My husband even loved it and he doesn't like anything low calorie.


Turkey Reuben Quesadilla

1 large low carb/multi grain tortilla
1 oz (2 slices) fat-free turkey breast
1 slice reduced fat swiss cheese
2 tbsp saurkraut, drained
1 tbsp fat free thousand island dressing

Cut cheese slice into four triangles. Set aside.

Lay tortilla flat and spread dressing over it, leaving 1/2 inch of space around the perimeter. Arrange the cheese triangles on one half of the tortilla. Spray a medium-large pan with cooking spray and bring to MED heat. Place tortilla flat in the pan with the dressing covered; cheese topped side facing up.

Once cheese has begun to melt, top the cheese with turkey slices and saurkraut, adding additional saurkraut if you wish. Using a spatula, fold the dressing only half over the other half; pressing down lightly with the spatula to seal.

Continue cooking for another minute; or until the bottom is slightly toasted. Flip tortilla and continue cooking for 1 add'l minute, or until desired level of toasty-ness is reached. Remove from heat. Cut into 4 triangles. Serve.
