How To Make black bean quesadillas
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 350.
-
Step 2Cook small amount of ground meat. Cook until done. Put the ground meat, red onion, red pepper, black beans, cilantro and cumin in a small bowl and mix.
-
Step 3Heat a large nonstick pan to medium heat. Coat with cooking spray.
-
Step 4Place a tortilla in the pan for about 1 minute to warm. Place half of the bean mixture on one side of the tortilla. Fold tortilla over to cover mixture. Cook 1-2 minutes. Then flip. Repeat with the second tortilla.
-
Step 5Remove from heat and place both tortillas on a baking sheet. Open each tortilla and sprinkle generously with shredded cheese. Then fold over again before putting in oven. Bake in preheated oven about 5 -10 minutes until nicely warm and cheese is melted.
