Shortly after my husband and I were married, I started hinting that I wanted to have children . . . lots of them! When I finally got him on board with the whole baby idea, it took a VERY long time for us to get pregnant. Miraculously, our sweet baby girl was born and suddenly my dream of having a big family changed a little bit . . .Instead of thinking of having 6 kids, I decided that 5 would be more realistic. A couple of years later, I had another baby and I remember thinking, “Maybe just 4. 4 kids is a great number.” Then another daughter joined the fam and as I was up in the middle of the night feeding my baby, I remember thinking in my sleep-deprived brain, “3 kids. 3 kids is more than enough.” 🙂 But mothering is a tough job! One of the biggest eye-openers to me has been mealtime. My kids have all been picky eaters and it seems to get worse and worse until they turn about 5 years old.
I refuse to be a short-order cook and make a million different dishes for everyone, so I try to find dishes that everyone likes. Sandwiches are a popular choice, especially in the summer when I hate to turn on my oven, and everyone can pick the toppings that they want on their sandwich. These quesadillas are a fun twist on one of our favorite sandwiches and will become an instant family favorite in your home!
