Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes

Yield: 6-8 quesadillas

Notes

I like to make the quesadillas fresh, so whatever filling you don't use can be put in a container in the fridge until your next easy meal.

Instructions

  1. Drain and rinse the beans, and add them into a bowl with everything else. Stir until well-mixed.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of oil. Add a tortilla and fill one half of it with the filling. Fold it over and cook and flip until both sides are crispy brown and the cheese is melted.
