Spinach Avocado Cheese Quesadillas Recipes

CRISPY MUSHROOM, SPINACH, AND AVOCADO QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil until shimmering.
• Add chopped red onion and a dash of salt, stirring occasionally, until the onions are turning translucent. Add sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and turning golden, about 6 minutes.
• Add half the spinach mixture, let it wilt a little, and then add the second.
• Cook until spinach is wilted and the mixture is dry, 2 to 3 minutes or longer. Season with salt and pepper and a splash of lime juice. Remove from heat.
• Divide 1 cup shredded cheese between the 4 quesadillas, covering only half of each tortilla with cheese.
• Divide the spinach and mushroom mixture evenly on top of the cheese on each quesadilla, then top with avocado slices.
• Top all of that with 1 cup shredded cheese, divided equally between the 4 quesadillas. Press the empty tortilla halve over the toppings.
• Heat a medium to large skillet on the stove over medium heat.
• Place one quesadilla into the pan and cook for a few minutes then carefully flip with a spatula.
• Immediately sprinkle some of the remaining cheese over the hot sides of the quesadilla, and let the cheese sizzle into the quesadilla for a couple minutes.
• Flip and cook the other side for a couple minutes if necessary, until both sides are a nice, crisp golden brown.
• Let the quesadillas cool on a cutting board for a few minutes, then slice each quesadilla into three slices using a pizza cutter or a very sharp knife.
• Serve with salsa.

AVOCADO QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the tomatoes, avocado, onion, lemon juice and Tabasco.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• In another small bowl, mix together sour cream, coriander, salt and pepper to taste.
• Put tortillas on a baking sheet and brush tops with oil.
• Broil tortillas 2 to 4 inches from heat until pale golden.
• Sprinkle tortillas evenly with cheese and broil until cheese is melted.
• 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 into 4 wedges.
• Top each wedge with a dollop of sour cream mixture and serve warm.
