Grilled Avocado Quesadillas
"I have been making this recipe at the cottage for numerous years now. (I was given it by a "summer neighbour"). It makes a nice light meal with a tossed salad and I love that it can be made up to four hours ahead of time and there is no fussing with people having to tailor their own."

Very good. It went together quickly and the quesadilla cooked up in no time at all. The only change I might make is to add some more seasoning. I think a little spice would make it even better. Maybe some minced garlic and a little cumin. Update: I changed these to 5 stars because I can't stop craving them! I made them with a heaping spoonful of garlic in a jar this time, and really liked that addition. They are so light and delicious! It did only make 3 or 4 quesadillas for us - even using the small size. I definitely recommend trying these! Made for My Three Chefs - Fall 09 -
I loved this! Used a sprouted wheat tortilla, was delish!! -
I wasn't sure about how this was going to taste with the warm avocado but it was delicious! I substituted cooked diced red pepper for the tomato and added some green chili peppers for a bit of spice. Thanks for the recipe!

These are absolutely delicious. I even ended up buying another 10 avocados so i could make it over and over! -
These are very good, but I will add some hot peppers next time. The first bite, I kind of wondered about them. But after another bite, I had to keep eating and eating them. With some hot peppers, I think they'd be irresistable! Made for Favorites of 2009 Tag game. Thanks to Sweet PQ for putting this in your favorites cookbook!
