Black Bean Quesadilla PDF Print E-mail
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
  • 1 cup cooked black beans (drained)
  • 2-3 small zucchini shredded
  • 4-6 med/small flour tortilla (I use fat free)
  • spray olive oil
  • cheese substitute (optional)
  • Fresh Salsa (chop in food processor and combine):
  • 5-6 assorted peppers, anaheim, jalapeno, yellow, etc.
  • 2 chopped green onions
  • 6-7 Roma tomatoes
  • 1/2 lime squeezed
  • 1/2 lemon squeezed
  • cilantro
Directions:

Mix beans, 1/2 to 1 cup salsa, zucchini in bowl.

In small skillet heat spray olive oil, add a flour tortilla and spread bean mixture on top, sprinkle with cheese and second tortilla and cook lightly till slightly crisp. Flip tortillas and heat the other side. It looks like a tortilla sandwhich/quesadilla. Cut into quarters, top with more salsa. 4 quarters is a serving.

Personally I like guacamole on top!

1 avocado, lemon juice, my salsa, and garlic salt. Mash with fork.

enjoy

Serves: 2 or more
