Avocado quesadillas are really simple to make. All you need are some ripe avocados, your favorite salsa, limes, cheese, tortillas, and butter. And if you have additional time, these homemade sprouted wheat tortillas are a healthy and earthy addition.
As always, use high quality ingredients to make these quesadillas extra good. I like to use Raw Cheddar Cheese, Kalona SuperNatural Butter, and Organic Salsa.
