With a busy schedule, it can be hard to make a decent, easy dinner with healthy ingredients. Sometimes I grab a salad, and while I like salads . . . sometimes I want something a bit different.

I’m always fighting the urge to just stick a bunch of frozen chicken into the toaster oven and open a bag of chips. I know, I know.

This quesadilla recipe is packed with flavor and (with the added veggies) nutrients. Savory prosciutto, juicy tomatoes, crunchy kale, and cheesy mozzarella on top of garlic butter.

Yeah, you’ll want to make this tonight.
