Homemade Quesadillas

Sorry that I haven't been on in a while. I went to Mexico City and Cancun for spring break. In honor of my trip to Mexico, let's make quesadillas!  This is one of my most favorite foods in the world. After a long gymnastics practice, I like to eat quesadillas because they aren't too filling, but they satisfy my hunger.

 To make the quesadilla, we layered cheese, tomatoes, and avocados on a tortilla and put it in a frying pan. Then we laid the other tortilla on top of it.  To reduce the fat content, my mom just sprays the pan with non-stick spray instead of using butter.  (However, as you probably know, butter tastes soooooo good.  Sometimes in Mexico, they used lard.)

 This is what the quesadilla looked like when we finished cooking it. The quesadilla was delicious, as the avocados were a perfect match for the tomatoes and gooey cheddar cheese. The smooth avocado really softens the tartness of the tomato.

The panda in the picture above is named Stuboom. Stuboom enjoyed the quesadilla almost as much as I did!  I brought Stuboom to Mexico.  He was a wonderful traveling companion.

This is the view from our hotel room in Cancun. From our hotel you can see the beach! I almost dropped Stuboom off of our hotel balcony!:o

This is a picture of me doing a handstand on the beach in Cancun. Look how clean and unpolluted the water is! The sand was so soft and smooth that it felt like a blanket! 

I hope you enjoyed this post!

I hope everyone had a great spring break!
