BLT Quesadilla with Avocado Mayo for #SundaySupper

Welcome to this week’s #SundaySupper celebrating Día de Independencia, or Mexican Independence Day!

Our host Heather from http://www.girlichef.com has put together a fantastic fiesta featuring recipes from our #SundaySupper group!
Join us around the family table this week for our #SundaySupper Mexican Fiesta – this is a party that you won’t want to miss.

Let’s start the fiesta off with my BLT Quesadilla with Avocado Mayo!

BLT with Avocados! So good together!

INGREDIENTS

• 1/2 lb bacon, cooked (about 8 slices)You can use turkey bacon or tofu if you like!
• 4 tortillas, whole wheat
• 1/2 cup tomatoes, diced
• 1 cup lettuce, shredded
• 2 ounces cheddar cheese or reduced-fat cheddar cheese, shredded

Avocado Mayo

Ingredients
• 1/2 each avocados, seeded, peeled and mashed

(I just mash it with a fork, I like it a little chunky)

• 1/4 cup mayonnaise, reduced calorie
• 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
• salt and pepper to taste

1. Spread Avocado mayo on your tortilla. I like a lot!

2. Heat Tortilla in the skillet just until warm. Add cheese, bacon, tomato and lettuce.

3. When cheese starts to melt, fold tortilla in half. Brown on both sides.

4. Serve with non-fat sour cream (you have to save calories somewhere!) and your favorite salsa!
