1 Hass avocado, seeded and peeled
1 small garlic clove, minced
1/2 lemon, juiced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
5 slices bacon
1 large onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 or 2 medium jalapeno peppers, stemmed, seeded and finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
4 large flour tortillas
1 pound jack cheese, grated

Directions
- Mash the avocado with the garlic, lemon juice and salt and pepper, to taste. Reserve covered in the refrigerator.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Cook the bacon in a medium saute pan until browned and crisp and transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain. Crumble and reserve.
- Pour off and reserve all the bacon fat. Saute the onion, garlic, and jalapeno seasoned with the cumin, coriander and salt and pepper, to taste, in a couple tablespoons bacon grease. On 2 tortillas sprinkle half of the grated cheese. Then layer equal amounts of the onion mixture, crumbled bacon, and the remaining grated cheese. Top with the other 2 tortillas.
