BLACK BEAN AND GOAT CHEESE QUESADILLAS

For these quesadillas, I prefer to use my own cooked black beans, which I try to keep on hand in the freezer. Canned baked beans are also an option, but they are higher in sodium than home-cooked beans.

Yield One serving

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 corn tortillas
1/3 cup cooked black beans
1 ounce crumbled goat cheese (1/4 cup)
1/4 roasted red bell pepper or 1/2 roasted piquilo pepper, cut in strips
Salsa for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • In a microwave: Place a corn tortilla on a plate. Top with the beans. Gently mash the beans with the back of a spoon. Top with pepper strips. Sprinkle on the cheese, and top with the remaining tortilla. Press down gently, then microwave for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes until the cheese has melted.

3 oz. goat cheese, crumbled (1/2 cup)
1 medium tomato, seeded and coarsely chopped
3/4 cup corn kernels
2 scallions, coarsely chopped
1 1/2 tbsp. coarsely chopped fresh oregano
Coarse salt and ground pepper
10 six-inch tortillas

Tips:

  • Choose ripe avocados: For the best flavor and texture, use ripe avocados that yield to gentle pressure. Avoid avocados that are too hard or have brown spots.
  • Use good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will greatly impact the flavor of your quesadillas. Choose a cheese that melts well and has a flavor that complements the other ingredients.
  • Cook quesadillas over medium heat: Cooking quesadillas over medium heat will help to prevent them from burning and will allow the cheese to melt evenly.
  • Serve quesadillas immediately: Quesadillas are best enjoyed fresh out of the pan. Serve them with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.
