Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 15- to 16-ounce cans pinto beans, drained, rinsed
3/4 cup chopped red onion
3/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 1/2 jalapeño chilies, seeded, minced

  • Place 1 tortilla on work surface. Spread with 1/4 of bean mixture. Top with 2 tablespoons cheese, then another tortilla. Heat heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Brush with oil.

These quesadillas were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more spices next time.

These quesadillas were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. I'll definitely make them again, but I'll use less chili powder next time.

I'm not a huge fan of feta cheese, but I really enjoyed these quesadillas. The beans and spices were so flavorful that the feta cheese didn't overpower them.

Easy to make and so flavorful! I used black beans instead of pinto beans and they turned out great.
