Granny's Shrimp & Avocado  Quesadillas 

8 ounces cooked, peeled shrimp, coarsely chopped
1-1/2 cups (12 ounces) crumbled queso blanco or shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 fully ripened avocado, halved, pitted, peeled and diced
1 to 2 tablespoons chopped pickled jalapeno pepper
6 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided
12 small (8-inch) flour tortillas
To taste picante or other sauce
In a medium bowl, combine shrimp, cheese, avocado, tomato and jalapeno pepper. Spoon 1/2 cup mixture on each of six tortillas; spread to 1/2 inch from edges. Top with remaining six tortillas; press gently. Over medium heat, in a medium skillet (preferably nonstick), heat 1 teaspoon of the oil until hot. Place one filled tortilla in skillet; cook, turning once, until golden brown and cheese has melted, about 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining oil and filled tortillas. Cut each Quesadillas in 6 wedges.

France
is about 80% the size of Texas. In the Alps near the Italian and Swiss borders is western Europe's highest point—Mont Blanc (15,781 ft; 4,810 m). The forest-covered Vosges Mountains are in the northeast, and the Pyrénées are along the Spanish border. Except for extreme northern France, the country may be described as four river basins and a plateau. Three of the streams flow west—the Seine into the English Channel, the Loire into the Atlantic, and the Garonne into the Bay of Biscay. The Rhône flows south into the Mediterranean. For about 100 mi (161 km), the Rhine is France's eastern border. In the Mediterranean, about 115 mi (185 km) east-southeast of Nice, is the island of Corsica (3,367 sq mi; 8,721 sq km).
