Steps:
- For the chicken: Combine the vinegar, honey, olive oil, mustard, garlic powder, basil, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Place the chicken in a shallow dish or large zip-top plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the goat cheese spread: Place the garlic in a food processor and pulse until minced. Add the goat cheese, chives, parsley, olive oil and lemon juice. Process until fluffy. Season with salt and pepper.
- For the wraps: Heat a grill pan (or outdoor grill) to medium-high heat.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill until cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove the chicken from the grill. Add the eggplant, bell peppers and onion. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and grill, turning occasionally, until crisp-tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
- To assemble the wraps, spread the goat cheese spread on the tortillas. Top evenly with the chicken and vegetables. Roll up, burrito-style, and cut in half.
ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH HERB GOAT CHEESE
Roasting veggies always needs revamping every now and then, and I like to experiment by pairing them with different dressings or cheeses. I happened to love goat cheese and had extra on hand. I paired it with asparagus, and they lived happily ever after.

Steps:
- Grill Method:
- Spray one side of a tortilla with oil and place it, oiled side down, on the grill over medium-high heat. Top with one-quarter (about 3 ounces) of the cheese and one-quarter of the salsa. Spray one side of a second tortilla with oil, and place it on top of the first, oiled side up. Cook, about 3 minutes, until the bottom tortilla is golden brown. Turn the quesadilla over and continue cooking, about 3 minutes more, until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Remove from the grill and cut into wedges. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, cheese, and salsa. Serve immediately.
- Camp Stove Method:
- Spray a large skillet with oil and warm over medium-high heat on the stove. Place 1 tortilla in the hot skillet, and top with one-quarter (about 3 ounces) of the cheese and one-quarter of the salsa. Top with a second tortilla. Cook, about 3 minutes, until the bottom tortilla is golden brown. Turn the quesadilla over and continue cooking, about 3 minutes more, until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Remove from the skillet and cut into wedges. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, cheese, and salsa. Serve immediately.
- Make It at Home:
- Make it a meal by adding broiled shrimp. Preheat the broiler. Spread 1 pound of peeled shrimp in a single layer on a baking sheet, spray with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Broil, about 2 minutes, until the shrimp is cooked through. Split each shrimp in half lengthwise. Continue with preparation per the camp-stove method. Add 1/4 cup of the shrimp to each quesadilla along with the cheese and salsa.
