Yummy Lunch or Quick Dinner

I have this on nights that I don't feel like making a big dinner. You can vary the ingredients depending upon your likes and dislikes. Very simple and filling!
Chicken Quesadilla- 3 blocks
1 whole wheat carb balance tortilla-(1 block carb/ 1 block fat)
2 oz roasted chicken- (2 blocks protein)
1 oz mozzarella shredded (1 block protein/ 1 block fat)
1/2 red bell pepper thinly sliced (1/4 block carb)
1/4 cup black beans rinsed (1 block carb)
1/2 apple sliced (1 block carb)
olive oil to crisp tortilla- (1 block fat)

  4. I was feeling like Indian food so I found this pre made all natural sauce at New Leaf in fridge section (Maya Kaimal Indian Coconut Curry) that I simmered with Tj's organic chicken breast tenders, then added at the end 1 pkg of stir fried (to thaw) TJ's Asian Veggies (ditching the included sauce packet).I measured out 3 oz chicken and had half of the veggies. I calculated the sauce at 1.5 blocks carb and 4 blks fat and the veggies at 1.5 blocks carb. Super easy, quick and tasty.
