piña colada quesadillas




Piña Colada Quesadillas 
serves 4-6 

Ingredients:
10-12 medium flour tortillas
1 medium pineapple, cut into squares
3 tablespoons coconut oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 medium yellow onion, diced

2 boneless, skinless grilled chicken breasts, shredded
About 2 cups grated cheese (Colby, Monterey Jack, Cheddar, or mexican blend)
3/4 cup freshly torn cilantro

Directions:
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Add pineapple and toss with salt and cinnamon, cooking until caramelized and golden, flipping occasionally – about 6-8 minutes. Remove pineapple and place in a bowl, then add another 1/2 tablespoon of coconut oil, tossing in onions with a pinch of salt. Stir and cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes, then remove from the skillet and place in the bowl with the pineapple.
Reduce the heat in the skillet to low, add another 1/2 tablespoon of coconut oil. Place a tortilla down, then cover in a sprinkling of cheese, chicken, the pineapple, onions and cilantro, then add another sprinkle of cheese. Fold and cook both sides until golden. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

Enjoy!
