Ingredients

Cooking spray
8 flour or whole-wheat tortillas
2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend or shredded Monterey Jack
2 cooked salmon fillets, pulled apart with 2 forks into 1-inch pieces
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 cup sliced pickled jalapeno peppers
2 Hass avocados, pitted and flesh removed from skin
1/2 cup drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Coat a large griddle with cooking spray and preheat to medium-high.

Arrange 4 tortillas on a flat surface. Top each tortilla with 1/2 cup cheese. Toss salmon with chili powder and place on top of cheese. Top with sliced jalapeno peppers and a second tortilla. Place tortillas on hot griddle and cook 2 to 3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cheese melts.

In a blender, combine avocado, sun-dried tomatoes and lime juice. Process until smooth. Transfer to a bowl, fold in cilantro and season with salt and pepper. Serve quesadillas with guacamole on the side.

To Carol
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

Hi Carol, Just watched this episode this afternoon... these instructions are different than the show... weird. Anyways, on... the show she put everything on one half of the tortilla, folded it over, placed it on a baking sheet sprayed with PAM, then sprayed the top of the tortillas with PAM and placed another baking sheet on top of the quesadillas to help press them down. I am sure that the oven was heated to about 400 degrees, but I don't remember exactly, and she put them in the over until the cheese was melted... she said 10 mins on the show. Hope that helps! Although, I always cook my tortillas on the griddle, or on a grill pan... I think that spraying PAM right on the tortilla would make it soggy?Read more

It was a little tasteless, and I suppose I prefer traditional guacamole.

Delicious!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I used frozen salmon filets, and before I cooked them on the stovetop, i rubbed them in olive oil and sprinkled chili powder... on top. They grilled up tasting so delicious. I also didn't make the guacamole, but rather just used salsa. Also delicious!Read more
