Quick, simple, and delicious, these quesadillas let the clean flavors of mahimahi truly shine. I like a fair amount of heat in my "Mexican" food but if you want to tone it down, just use fewer jalapeños.

While combining shrimp with cheese is sometimes frowned upon (especially in Italian cuisine), the comingling of shrimp with tangy goat cheese, spicy chorizo, caramelized onions, and jack cheese, loaded into a double-layered quesadilla and crisped up in the oven is a winning flavor combination.
Once all the fillings are prepared, this dish comes together incredibly easily. It can also be readied a day in advance and then popped in the oven to reheat come dinnertime.
These quesadillas are also perfect for any occasion. Be it an elegant dinner (especially when paired with white wine) or a lazy afternoon watching the game with friends (guacamole makes for a great accompaniment) these classy quesadillas are sure to please.

Delicate lobster meat nestled between citrusy goat cheese and creamy avocado makes for a fantastic meal. Especially if you butter up the pan to get a nice and crisp exterior. I have to admit that this recipe is really the brainchild of Mr. Avocado (hence the addition of avocado).
If you ever find yourself with leftover lobster, this is the perfect dish to use it up in. When would this ever happen you ask? Well, let's say there was a sale on lobster and you ended up boiling more than you could eat. Voilà! Lobster quesadillas for everyone.

I had this really brilliant eggplant quesadilla while visiting friends in Syracuse. I don't remember what else was in it, but it was definitely the best cheeseless quesadilla I've ever tasted. That experience inspired me to come up with my own version (since I couldn't remember theirs), so here it is. And, you know, actually I think mine might be better. Just sayin'...

Quesadillas often feel too heavy for the health-conscious. While this recipe may not be healthy per se, it at least adds a bit of complexity and brightness to a normally traditional dish. The shrimp and Parmesan create a quesadilla that will stand out from the pack.
