(I love some sliced mango or any fresh fruit on the side really)

 

2 vine-ripened tomatoes

1 firm-ripe avocado

1 tablespoon chopped red onion

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

1/4 teaspoon Tabasco or tablespoon of salsa

1/4 cup sour cream

3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

four 6- to 7-inch flour tortillas

1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil

1 1/3 cups coarsely grated Monterey Jack

Garnish: fresh cilantro sprigs

 

Seed tomatoes and cut into 1/4-inch dice. Cut avocado into 1/4-inch dice. In a

small bowl stir together

tomatoes, avocado, onion, lemon juice, and Tabasco and season with salt and

pepper. In another small bowl stir together sour cream, cilantro, and salt

and pepper to taste.

Preheat broiler. ***** (see bottom for alternative tortilla preparation) *****

Put tortillas on a large baking sheet and brush tops with oil. Broil

tortillas on a rack set 2 to 4 inches from heat until pale golden. Turn

tortillas and broil until other sides are pale golden. Sprinkle tortillas

evenly with Monterey Jack and broil until cheese is melted and bubbling.

Spread avocado mixture evenly over 2 tortillas and top each with 1 of

remaining tortillas, cheese side down, to make 2 quesadillas. Transfer

quesadillas to a cutting board and cut each into 4 wedges.

Top each wedge with a heaping teaspoon of sour cream mixture and garnish

with cilantro sprigs.

Makes 2 Servings. ********* You can also spray cooking spray on the tortillas

and heat to a golden brown on the stove in a dry skillet, this works fine if you

don't want to use the broiler. The stovetop method is sometimes faster and

easier, just assemble the same way.
