Avocado & Pea Guacamole

Preparation
Avocado and Pea Guacamole
- In a food processor, pulse together the avocado, peas, lime juice, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper until combined but still chunky. Stir in green onions, jalapeño, and cilantro.
Quesadillas
- Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Cook mushrooms, leeks, thyme, salt, and pepper for 8 to 10 minutes or until mushrooms are golden and leeks are tender.
- On half of each tortilla, sprinkle the fontina cheese first, followed by the mushroom mixture and goat cheese. Fold each tortilla over to enclose filling.
- Brush remaining olive oil over the skillet and set over medium heat. Cook quesadillas, in batches, for 2 to 3 minutes per side or until golden brown and cheese melts. Cut each quesadilla into three wedges. Serve with avocado and pea guacamole.
