Ingredients

1/4 cup diced onions
1 tsp olive oil
1 cup peeled and diced avocado
1/4 cup diced tomatoes
Pinch of ground cumin
Pinch of salt
Pinch of black pepper
4 med flour tortillas, about 9 inch in diameter

4 Tbsp shredded low-fat Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup salsa
4 Tbsp non-fat sour cream

In a small pan, sauté onions in olive oil until translucent. In a large bowl, combine cooked onions with avocado, tomatoes, cumin, salt, and pepper. Lay tortillas flat. Spread 1/3 cup of avocado mixture, 1 tsp green chiles, 2 Tbsp crab meat and 1 Tbsp cheese on each. Fold tortillas in half, place in a pan coated with nonstick spray. Cook over med heat 3-5 minutes per side, or until cheese is melted. Serve with salsa and sour cream.

Tips:

Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your quesadillas.
Use ripe avocados. Ripe avocados are creamy and flavorful, and they will add a delicious richness to your quesadillas.
Don't overcook the crab. Crab meat is delicate, so it's important to cook it just until it's opaque. Overcooked crab will be tough and chewy.
Use a good quality cheese. A good quality cheese will melt smoothly and evenly, and it will add a delicious flavor to your quesadillas.
Serve your quesadillas immediately. Quesadillas are best when they are served hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Crab and avocado quesadillas are a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or lunch. They are also a great appetizer or party food. With a few simple tips, you can make delicious crab and avocado quesadillas that your family and friends will love.
