Recipe Method

1- To assemble, layer 1/3 cup cheese, 1/2 cup chicken, 1/3 cup cherries and 1 1/2 tablespoons salsa on half of each tortilla. Sprinkle each with 1/3 cup of remaining cheese. Fold tortillas in half; pressing gently.

2- Spray a nonstick 10- or 12-inch skillet and tops of each quesadilla with no-stick cooking spray. Heat skillet over medium-low heat.

3- Place quesadillas in skillet, bottom sides down. Cook quesadillas, uncovered, for 9 to 12 minutes or until golden and cheese is melted, carefully turning over once.

4- Remove quesadillas from skillet. Cut quesadillas into wedges. If desired, serve with additional salsa, sour cream and green onions.
