Goat Cheese Quesadillas

One of the best things about this blog has been the many suggestions, ideas, and comments I have gotten from the folks reading it. I love hearing from all of you so much! I have gotten amazing guidance on the photography (thanks, Bob!), with the design of the blog and how to display the pictures (thanks Christopher!), general love and encouragement and patience when I am holding up yet another meal while getting just ONE more shot (love you, Don!) and best of all, so many great ideas and suggestions for new recipes to try. Today's recipe comes to me from my friend Pat, and it arrived at the absolute perfect moment -- one of those days when I actually had some un-spoken-for corn in the fridge, some tortillas, and a lonely avocado. A quick trip to Fairway for some of their AMAZING store-made goat cheese (try it!!) and some salsa verde and I was in business.

These little quesadillas would of course be a great starter for any meal, but we actually had them for lunch. I made my 30 second version of guacamole (mash up an avocado, mix in fresh lime juice, coarse salt, chopped tomatoes - that's it!) and plunked the quesas on a plate with a little mound of the guac and some sour cream. Out we went to the Adirondack chairs in the back yard -- me, my gorgeous Southern husband and my hopeful but out-of-luck-when-it-comes-to-getting-any-of-the-quesadillas dog, and we had a lovely little lunch.

So thanks for the recipe, Pat! And thanks to everyone else who is helping me make my little blog adventure so much fun. Keep those comments coming! Meantime, here is the link to some great quesadillas:
