Crispy quesadillas with avocado and mushroom
March 22, 2011 § 4 Comments
For most of my life I have disliked mushrooms. Strongly.
However, I have slowly begun to incorporate them into my cooking: Portabella burgers, button mushrooms in omelets, on pizza – that sort of thing. Tonight I had a mushroom and avocado quesadilla, courtesy of Megan at Cooking Whims.
It was crispy, cheesy and loaded with the flavour of the avocado and mushrooms!
My only changes: adding a 1/4 cup to a 1/2 cup of chopped, white onion. Also, I cooked the mushrooms, avocado and onion in a bit of oil before putting them into the quesadilla.
This is the perfect weeknight night meal for when you’re in a hurry but still want something tasty and healthy.
UPDATE: I have found that the softer, riper, more spreadable the avocado, the better!
I’m glad you liked them! The addition of the onions sounds great, and I absolutely love that picture!
Thank you for give me a new way to enjoy mushrooms! Haha!
I totally know how you feel about mushrooms! I’m going through the same thing. I thought I hated them my whole life but I’m kind of rediscovering them and they are appearing in all sorts of things! I think we’ll definitely give this quesadilla a try because avocado is the best.
And thanks for coming to my blog. I’m trying to incorporate my food blogging into my main blog so hopefully you’ll be back!
Well let me know how the quesadilla goes! I hope it is as tasty for you as it was for me! Also, I look forward to your food blogging
