What do you get when you mix a taco with a quesadilla? A TACODILLA! Cooking at home gives you the power to exercise self control. I don’t know about you but I can’t go to a Mexican restaurant and eat just 5 chips. Once that bowl comes out it’s all over. Then your meal comes… you’re not really hungry, but you ordered it, so you have to eat it, and it is so good that you finish it. I know you are shaking your head in agreement. So next time you are craving a good quesadilla, or a Taco, grab your laptop and cook a Tacodilla with me. ( This one is pretty large so it is meant for sharing)

Directions
Step 1: Place a large tortilla in a fry pan that has been sprayed with olive oil. (m/h setting)
Step 2: Place 3 defrosted frozen fish sticks in the center of the tortilla. (they are fully cooked I like to defrost in my fridge over night)
Step 3: Add some lettuce and shredded cheese
Step 4: Cover the tortilla with the other half so it makes a half moon shape. ( shown in video) cover pan with a lid and then spray the top before you flip over to cook the other side. When you remove from the pan cut the serving in half to make two servings, and use the tarter sauce as a dipping sauce.
Step 5: Enjoy!
