Steps:
- Start by rinsing 2 poblano peppers. Roast the poblanos in the oven for 25-30 minutes at 400F.
- If you are building the Avocado Salsa Verde, you can also roast 4 tomatillos in the same pan as the poblanos. But remember that the tomatillos will need less time roasting. Take them out when they start to turn army green, approx 10-15 minutes.
- Add the roasted tomatillos to a blender along with 1/2 onion, 1 garlic clove, 10-12 sprigs cilantro, and 1/2 of a serrano pepper (or 1/2 of a jalapeno pepper). Pulse blend and taste for heat, adding the additional 1/2 of the serrano (or jalapeno) if you want more heat. Add the avocado to the blender and combine well. Salt to taste.
- Once the poblanos have roasted, let them cool and then pull off any loose bits of skin, but don't worry about getting rid of every last piece.
- De-stem and de-seed the poblanos, cutting them into thin, bite-sized strips.
- Saute 1/2 an onion in a dollop of oil over medium heat. When the onion is tender (4-6 minutes) add the poblano strips along with a generous pinch of salt and some freshly ground pepper. Let this mixture saute for a few minutes.
- Heat up a wide skillet over medium heat. Warm up the tortillas before building the quesadillas (I usually give them 30-60 seconds in the skillet right before building).
- Each quesadilla gets a layer of refried beans, cheese, poblano-onion mixture, cilantro, and cheese. Fill only half of the tortilla so you can fold it onto itself.
- Cook the quesadillas for 2-3 minutes per side or until the cheese is melted and they start to turn golden brown.
- Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add the poblanos and onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 10 minutes; transfer to a bowl. Wipe the skillet clean. Add the beans to the poblano mixture in the bowl; roughly mash with a fork to combine.
- Use 1 tablespoon of the remaining oil to brush 1 side of each tortilla. Place 4 tortillas oiled-side down and top evenly with the poblano mixture and cheese. Cover with the remaining tortillas, oiled-side up.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high. Cook the quesadillas in batches, until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy and the cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
- Combine the radishes, lime juice, salt, and the remaining 1½ teaspoons of oil in a bowl. Cut the quesadillas into wedges and sprinkle with the dressed radishes, avocado, and cilantro.

QUESADILLAS WITH POBLANO CHILES
This recipe is for an authentic style quesadilla. Dust off your tortilla press, and put it to use to make these cheesy melted goodness quesadillas that even your Nana will love. (Don't worry, I have included instructions for making them using a rolling pin). Believe it or not, this is from Williams Sonoma Mexican- I'm lovin this book after only making one recipe from it so far.

Steps:
- Tortillas: Mix masa harina with warm water. Using your hands squish water and flour together until a cohesive mass is formed. Dough should be smooth and pliable. Cover the bowl with a barely damp kitchen towel. Let sit 5-10 minutes. Add salt; knead gently in bowl for another minute. Divide dough into 12 equal portions. Use your palms to form each portion into a ball. Cover with the damp towel.
- Filling: In a frying pan over medium heat, warm the oil. Add onion and sauté until golden brown about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and oregano and cook for 1 more minute Add chiles and sea salt, toss until all is thoroughly heated. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt.
- Assembly of Quesadillas: Put two sheets of plastic cut from a plastic storage bag (I use a plastic grocery bag) inside a Tortilla press OR use rolling pin on 2 sheets of wax paper with the dough ball between the 2 sheets. Put a dough ball between the sheets and gently press down the top plate of the press OR roll the dough ball using the rolling pin into a circular shape between sheets of wax paper. Remove top piece of plastic or wax paper and place a generous tablespoon of the shredded cheese on half of the tortilla keeping the edges free. Top with a couple of chile strips and a few onion slices. Lift the lower piece of plastic or wax paper to fold the uncovered side of the tortilla over the filling. Press the edges together with your fingers. Remove from the press or the wax paper and set aside covered with the damp towel. Repeat until all Quesadillas are made.
- Cooking of Quesadillas: Preheat oven to 200 deg F. Pour oil to a depth of 1 inch into a deep heavy frying pan and place over medium high heat until the oil shimmers.
- Fry the Quesadillas - one at a time until golden 1-2 minutes.
- Using a slotted spatula, transfer to paper towels. Let drain briefly then transfer to a heat proof platter and keep warm in the oven. Serve as soon as possible.
- I had an extra amount of onion, cheese, and chiles so I dumped it on a store-bought corn tortilla, place another corn tortilla on top and then heated it on a dry frying pan until the cheese melted.

- Begin by rinsing and seeding the chiles. Add the chiles, onion, tomatoes and oregano in a saucepan with the water. Bring to a boil reduce heat to a simmer.

Steps:
- Finely chop first 4 ingredients to a uniform size (no bigger than 1/4 inch pieces).
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add sausage, onion, peppers and corn. Saute about 15 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Once sausage mixture is done, remove from the heat. Now its time to fill your tortillas.
- Spread a quarter of the sausage mixture onto half of a tortilla. Top with 1/2 cup cheese. Fold over the tortilla, making a half moon shape.
- Repeat with the other 3 tortillas.
- Heat the remaining oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. When hot carefully place two quesadillas in the pan. They can brown quickly so make sure to keep an eye on them so they don't burn! After about 5 min carefully flip the quesadillas. Once crisp on both sides remove to a plate and continue with the remaining 2.
- To serve, slice each quesadilla into 4 wedges and top with sour cream and/or salsa if desired.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F.
- Add the onions into a skillet over medium high heat with a bit of oil for two minutes, then add the white asparagus(I haven't tried green).
- Cook for five more minutes, stirring often, and then add the chiles, cook for 3 minutes or until the chiles are just soft and giving off their aroma. Squeeze the lime juice over the pan and scrape the bottom of the skillet, to get all the brown bits up(if any).
- Add the chicken broth, and cumin.
- Stir, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the asparagus is cooked through.
- Fill the tortillas with equal parts filling, and cheese, and bake in the oven, flipping once, until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes per side.
- Serve with pico de gallo, sour cream, and guacamole, with shredded iceberg salad.
- You can also do it in a pan, but for a family, I find the oven the fastest way to do it.
