How to Make Crab And Avocado Quesadilla

  1. In a medium bowl, gently combine the cooked crab meat, mashed avocado, mayonnaise, lime juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  2. Spread the crab and avocado mixture evenly over one half of each large flour tortilla.
  3. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the filling.
  4. Fold the tortillas in half, pressing gently to seal.
  5. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil.
  6. Cook the quesadillas for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before slicing into wedges and serving. Garnish with extra lime wedges and cilantro (optional).
