Alex is in Houston for work, so I decided to experiment with quesadillas! Sometimes I make them better than others. We used to use a quesadilla press, but it basically made every quesadilla taste exactly the same, no matter what we filled them with. Anyways, these were really easy turned out delicious! A bit on the plain side though - I should have spiced up the avocado - but still pretty good. Perfect for young kids. I'm also experimenting with taking photos while I cook, so my apologies if they're not as awesome as other cooking blogs.
Avocado and Cheese Quesadillas
Ingredients: Tortillas (2 for each quesadilla), butter, shredded cheese (I chose mozzarella), avocados
Next, melt butter in a pan on medium heat.
Toast your tortillas in the buttered pan. I usually flip them once or twice. You'll know they're done when they've browned a bit. Set them aside on a plate.
While the tortillas are toasting, cut your avocado. You can cut it nicely, or you can cut it "tortilla functional" (aka however you can get the avocado meat out of the skin). I chose the latter.
Place one tortilla back in the pan. Spread the cheese around the avocado.
Next, spoon the avocado onto tortilla. Are you impressed with my "camera in the right hand, spoon in the left" coordination skills? I am. It wasn't easy.
Poor more cheese over the top. This will help everything it melt together once we top it with the second tortilla.
Top with the second tortilla. Press firmly with your spatula on all sides so it holds together. You might even consider adding extra cheese to the sides that don't hold together well. Sorry this is a bit overexposed.
You can flip once to help it cook evenly.
Tada! The finished product. Cut it into quarters or whatever size pieces you want.
Once again, delicious quesadillas.
Until we eat again!
