Taco Bell Quesadillas

I love Taco Bell Quesadillas. I know, they are so unhealthy for you, but they are so yummy.  I found this recipe that is pretty similar, not quite, but it did the trick to save me from my craving.  Do not be afraid of the jalapenos.  After tasting them, I could have easily gotten my kids to eat them because they were so mild.

1/4 C canola mayonnaise
2 tsp minced jalapenos
2 tsp jalapeno juice (from minced jalapenos)
3/4 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1 dash salt
shredded cheddar cheese
shredded monterey jack cheese
tortillas
cooked chicken tenderloins

Combine ingredients down to the salt and stir until smooth.
Taking one tortilla at a time, lay tortilla into hot skillet and sprinkle with 1/4 C of each shredded cheese on 1/2 of the tortilla.
Arrange about 1/4 C chicken slices over tortilla on the same half covered with cheese.
On the emtpy half, spread about 1 Tbsp of sauce.
Fold over, and press gently with spatula.
Cook until cheese is melted and each side of tortilla is golden.
