High Protein Chicken Bacon Ranch Quesadilla Low Carb Weight Watchers Recipe

The Ingredients

Chicken Breast: Lean, high-quality protein that helps keep you full longer and supports muscle.

It’s naturally low in fat and calories, making it ideal for Weight Watchers.

Center Cut Bacon: Has less fat than traditional bacon but still delivers that smoky, satisfying flavor.

Because it’s more flavorful, you can use a small amount and still feel indulgent.

Light Ranch Dressing: Gives you that classic ranch flavor you want, but with fewer calories and less fat than regular versions. It helps keep the dish satisfying without going overboard.

Reduced-Fat Cheddar & Mozzarella: You still get that melty, cheesy texture, but with less saturated fat and fewer calories. Cheese also adds protein and calcium for bone health.

Mission Carb Balance Tortilla: A key swap that keeps carbs and points low while still giving you that crispy quesadilla texture. It’s also higher in fiber, which helps with fullness and digestion.

Green Onion: Adds fresh flavor and a little crunch for almost no calories. It also contains antioxidants and beneficial plant compounds.
