BLACK-BEAN QUESADILLAS WITH GOAT CHEESE
I served this as an appetizer for a book club discussion about Enrique's Journey by Sonia Nazario. It could serve 2-4 as a main course. It is from Cooking Light June 2001. I use a 15oz can of black beans, drained and rinsed. Then in step 2 just heat until simmering, no need to wait for it to thicken. It's also not necessary to crumble the goat cheese.

Steps:
- Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic, and saute for 3 minutes.
- Stir in 1/2 cup salsa, cumin, and beans, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes or until thick.
- Mash the bean mixture slightly with a potato masher.
- Remove from heat; stir in the cilantro and goat cheese.
- Spread the bean mixture evenly over 4 tortillas; top each with 1 tortilla, pressing gently.
- Heat 1/4 teaspoon olive oil in pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 quesadilla, and cook for 2 minutes on each side. Repeat the procedure with the remaining olive oil and quesadillas.
- Cut each quesadilla into 6 wedges. Serve with fat-free sour cream and 1/2 cup salsa.

delafuente.virginia6@hotmail.comI'm not a huge fan of goat cheese, but I decided to give these quesadillas a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The goat cheese was not overpowering at all, and it paired perfectly with the black beans and spices. These quesadillas were a great way to us
