    I love quesadillas and these were delicious! I also loved the twist on the quacamole.. the only thing is my market did not have any chorizo so I used some other type of sausage.. but I will definitely make again with the chorizo next time!!

    I bought Mexican chorizo (the crumbly kind and really regretted it. After cooking it, I had a pan full of crumbly morsels of something that didn't even resemble food swimming in orange grease. I ended up tossing the chorizo, and added a chipotle and some onion, corn, and fresh cilantro to the shrimp; it was delicious with the smoky guacamole. Next time I'll make sure to get Spanish chorizo from the butcher shop!

    Try some queso fresco with this recipe. It's what we use her in Mexican Food land (San Antonio. Chorizo and cheese have always been a tasty combination and are used in another excellent mexican cheese dip called chorizoqueso, queso fundido or queso flameado. For the shrimp ingredient, we split the shrimp length-wise after sauteing. Also try this using a burrito sized tortilla. Lay the tortilla flat and load up then place another tortilla on top. Turn the quesadilla over with the help of a plate (slide the quesadilla into the plate from the pan, put another plate on top, turn it over, then slide the quesadilla back into the pan. For the guacamole, we love the addition of salt, lime juice (never lemon, hot sauce (rather than adobo, no sour cream, and fresh minced garlic.

    I loved the guacamole! Usually I like my guac pure, but this smokey version turned out great. I made the quesadillas without the chorizo because it usually makes me sick, and it turned out yummy!

    This recipe was great and a big hit with my husband and friends. I added some chopped fresh cilantro to the inside of the quesadillas. The chorizo was hard to find and kind of expensive, but it ended up tasting great. I didn't use her guacamole recipe, I used my own traditional version and it was great with this quesadilla.

    This came out very well. It was easy to make. I loved it and have made it twice so far for my family - they all enjoy it. Great as an appetizer or an entree served with rice.

    I made these for a party last night & boy did they disappear! I used sharp cheddar and it was fine....I added a bit of cilantro and chopped jalepeno for spice.
    My husband was a bit upset that I took all of them to the party! The smoky guacamole was to die for...I made 1/2 the recipe and was plenty for people to dip tortilla chips in. SOOOOOO EASY & YUMMY!
