Avocado Quesadillas

Ingredients:
4 Soft Flour or Corn Tortillas
4 Oz Manchego Cheese (Sliced)
1 Avocado (Pitted, Peeled, and Cut into Chunks)
16 Canned or Jarred Jalapenos


Directions:
Place 1 tortilla on a work surface. Place about a quarter of the cheese on one half, not too near edge so cheese will not melt out as it cooks. Top cheese with a quarter of the avocado and four jalapeno slices. Fold tortilla in half over filling to form a semicircle. Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat. Slide uncooked quesadilla onto the pan. Squish down with a weight or just press briefly with a spatula. Cook 1 minutes, then flip the quesadilla and grill 1 minute more or until cheese is melted. Transfer quesadilla onto a cutting board and slice into 6 wedges. Serve immediately. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Make 24 wedges.
