AVOCADO QUESADILLAS
Avocados give quesadillas some nutritional value and, fortunately, my son likes them. Thinly slice the avocado, and add chicken or beef for extra protein. -Debbie Limas, North Andover, Massachusetts

GRILLED AVOCADO QUESADILLAS
I have been making this recipe at the cottage for numerous years now. (I was given it by a "summer neighbour"). It makes a nice light meal with a tossed salad and I love that it can be made up to four hours ahead of time and there is no fussing with people having to tailor their own.

GRILLED AVOCADOS
Had some ripe avocados left over. They were extras from guacamole the previous weekend. So I gave this quick and extremely easy recipe a shot on the grill, and the wife and kids loved it. Fresh ones are good too. Use paprika instead of the chipotle and chili powder for less spicy. Canola oil can be substituted for olive oil if desired.
