Ingredients
Method
Put pumpkin in a small steamer basket over a saucepan of simmering water. Cover and steam for 5-7 minutes or until pumpkin is very tender.
Lay 1 wrap on a clean surface. Sprinkle over half the kale, feta and chicken. Sprinkle over pumpkin. Top with remaining kale, feta and chicken. Cover with the second wrap.
Spray a medium non-stick frying pan with cooking spray and heat over a medium heat. Add wrap stack. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the base is golden brown. Carefully slide onto a plate. Spray the top wrap with cooking spray. Carefully invert onto a wire rack. Return to pan, uncooked-side down. Cook for a further 2 minutes or until golden brown.
To make the salad, put tomato, onion, cucumber and parsley in a medium bowl. Add lemon juice and oil. Toss to combine.
Cut quesadilla into wedges. Divide between serving plates and serve with salad.
