Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

4 medium plum tomatoes, diced
1/4 cup chopped red onion
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 can (15 ounces) low-sodium red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 tablespoon chopped chipotle chiles in adobo
4 fat-free 8-inch flour (or whole-wheat) tortillas
1 avocado, thinly sliced
4 cups baby spinach
1 cup reduced-fat shredded cheddar

Steps:

In a bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, cilantro, juice, cumin and salt. In a second bowl, mash beans; stir in chipotle. Working one at a time, top half of each tortilla with 1/4 avocado slices, 1/4 bean mixture, 1 cup spinach and 4 tablespoons cheese; fold in half. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; add 1 quesadilla and cook, flipping once, until both sides are brown and crispy, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining quesadillas. Let cool slightly; cut each quesadilla into 3 wedges; serve with tomato salsa.

Tips:

For the freshest salsa, use ripe, in-season vegetables.
Chop the vegetables into small, even pieces so that they will cook evenly.
Use a sharp knife to chop the vegetables to avoid bruising them.
Add the lime juice and salt to the salsa immediately after chopping the vegetables to prevent them from browning.
Taste the salsa and adjust the seasonings as needed.
Serve the salsa immediately or chill it for later use.
