Shrimp and Bacon Quesadillas
What's better than a shrimp quesadilla? One that has bacon, of course.

Ingredients

4 bacon slices, chopped
8 ounces peeled and deveined medium shrimp
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 flour tortillas
1 cup shredded jack cheese
1/4 cup chopped green onions
Sliced avocado, salsa, and sour cream

Preparation
1. Cook bacon in a medium frying pan over medium-high heat until crisp. Transfer to a paper towel to drain. Pour off grease, then add shrimp to pan and cook until pink, about 1 minute, stirring often. Set aside.
2. Heat 1 tsp. oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Set a tortilla in pan and sprinkle half of it with half the bacon, shrimp, cheese, and onions. Fold tortilla over filling and press down gently. Cook, covered, until browned, turning once, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
