Description

This recipe, “Black Bean and Corn Quesadilla,” is a simple, flavorful, and satisfying vegetarian dish that’s perfect for a quick lunch, dinner, or snack


Ingredients

Scale

 

  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn kernels
  • ½ bell pepper, diced
  • ½ onion, diced
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Whole-grain tortillas
  • Olive oil for cooking

Instructions

 

  1. Sauté Vegetables: In a large pan, heat a little olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

  2. Add Beans and Seasonings: Add the drained and rinsed black beans, corn kernels, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper to the pan. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, until heated through.

  3. Heat Tortilla: Heat a separate pan (non-stick or lightly oiled) over medium heat.

  4. Assemble Quesadilla: Place a tortilla in the heated pan. Spread a portion of the black bean mixture over half of the tortilla.

  5. Fold and Cook: Fold the tortilla over to form a half-moon shape. Cook until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.

  6. Repeat: Remove the quesadilla from the pan and repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

  7. Cut and Serve: Cut the quesadillas into wedges and serve immediately, optionally with salsa and guacamole (or other toppings of your choice).
