I love shrimp.  My sister can't stand the sight/smell/texture of shrimp.  My man loves shrimp/chicken/anything edible.

We straddled the fence of likes and dislikes with quesadillas. I bought a rotisserie chicken and shredded it, keeping it separate from all other ingredients.  I also kept a little bowl of baby shrimp on the side.

Then I made a huge bowl of delicious quesadilla goodness (shallots, garlic, mushrooms, corn, cilantro, etc.) and made everyone a personalized quesadilla (some shrimp, some chicken and BOTH for me.)

1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
