BAJA CALIFORNIA QUESADILLAS

Makes 8 appetizer servings.

Ingredients
• 1 each small ripe avocado, pitted
• 2 packages (3 oz. each) cream cheese, softened
• 3 tablespoons Frank’s® RedHot® Original Cayenne Pepper Sauce
• 1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro leaves
• 16 each flour tortillas (6 inch)
• 1 cup shredded cheese
• 1 cup chopped red or green bell pepper
 

Directions
1.
Scoop avocado flesh into food processor or mixer bowl. Add cream cheese and Frank’s® RedHot® sauce. Process or beat until smooth. Blend in cilantro.

2. To make quesadillas, spread 1 tablespoon avocado-cheese mixture onto each tortilla. Sprinkle cheese and pepper over half the tortillas, dividing evenly. Top with remaining tortillas; press gently.

3. Grill quesadillas on greased rack over medium heat until cheese melts and tortillas are lightly browned on both sides. Cut into triangles to serve.

Tips:
* Quesadillas may be cooked in a lightly greased nonstick skillet.
* Avocado-cheese mixture is great as a dip with tortilla chips.
