Quesadillas with Avocado cream


Ingredients:
4 flour tortillas
fresh spinach
fresh mushrooms
Muenster cheese slices
Jalapeno jam 

Place 4 tortillas on a work surface and spread our favorite jalapeno jam over one surface. Cover with thin slices of Muenster cheese, fresh spinach & fresh thin sliced mushrooms. Place a second tortilla over each creating a sandwich. Heat a dry nonstick large skillet; using a large spatula, place one quesadilla in the skillet and cook over medium heat pressing down with the spatula and turning once until the cheese melts and the tortillas brown. Keep the tortillas warm in the oven (250F) while making the remaining quesadillas.
To serve: cut each quesadillas into quarters and serve hot, garnished with quartered limes, cilantro sprigs and a dollop of avocado cream.

Avocado cream
1 ripe avocado, peeled, pitted and cut in large pieces.
juice of one lime
1/2 cup sour cream
salt to taste
Place all ingredients except the salt in a food processor and process until smooth. Scrape into a bowl, season with salt. Serve immediately.
