Bacon Tomato Avocado Quesadilla

Do you like quesadillas? I do. If you do, too, then you may want to try this recipe for a quesadilla that is a little different but delicious. Here is what you need to make it.

1 avocado
1 Roma tomato
4 strips bacon
2 flour tortillas (about 12 inches in diameter)
2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
Ranch dressing for dipping (if desired)

Instructions:

Cut avocado in half lengthwise. Remove pit, then run a spoon under and around the skin to remove meat. Cut each half of the avocado flesh into four slices; set aside. Slice tomato and set aside. Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain bacon on paper towels. Pour out bacon grease from skillet and return skillet to medium-high heat. Place one tortilla in the pan and top with 1 cup cheese. Place half the avocado, tomato and cooked bacon slices on top of the cheese and fold tortilla in half. Heat each side until light golden and cheese melts. Move to a plate and repeat with remaining tortilla, cheese, avocado, tomato and bacon. Cut each quesadilla in half and serve one half per person. Serve with Ranch dressing if desired.

Well, there you have it. Those are the written instuctions as I received them. Don't know about you, but, to be honest, I would have a problem eating only one half. I would have to have at least two halves, maybe more. So, if I had four people at my house to eat I would have to double the recipe. Yum!!!!!!!!!

Good eating!!!!!!!!!!
