The Last Supper...Tuna and Avocado Quesadillas

Today I had 1/2 of my face completely numbed with local anesthesia and nerve blocks. That was several hours ago and I still can't feel my lips or tongue. In fact I can't even drink water without dribbling and can't get it together enough to even suck on a straw. I knew I wouldn't be able to eat until tomorrow so I decided I would have one of my favs for lunch today :)

I made Omega 3 heaven. Tuna Avocado Quesadillas. They are sooo delish. Recipe & pix below. The pix didn't turn out well, I must have forgotten to use the flash! But oh well. They were sooo good!

In a small bowl mix the following:

2.6-oz pouch of chunk light tuna
2 tsp light mayo
salt & pepper
1/4-1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 tbsp salsa

1/4 avocado, thinly sliced (should make 6-8 slices)
1/3 c shredded cheese of choice ( today I used sharp cheddar)
4 small tortillas

olive oil

Heat a frying pan on medium. Pour a small amount of oil, about 2 tsp, into the pan. When the pan is warm add a tortilla, swirling to coat the bottom side in oil for even crisping. Add 1/2 of the tuna, pressed thinly across the tortilla with a fork, then top with 1/2 of the cheese. Add 3-4 avocado slices. After about 30 seconds press the second tortilla on top and flip after about 30 seconds more. Cook until both sides are light golden and the cheese is melted. Makes 2 quesadillas
