Ingredient Notes

• Black Beans – This uses leftover cooked, well seasoned black beans. Plain really hard black beans straight from a tin will not work as well in terms of flavor. See below for tips on how to convert plain black beans. 
• Soft Tortillas – This uses soft corn tortillas, but feel free to use wheat tortillas if you prefer. 
• Cheese – Use a Mexican blend, Monterey Jack, cheddar, or whatever you have on hand. 
• Vegetables – I used shredded lettuce and peppers, but you can easily use some spinach, other greens, and other veggies to your taste.  

How To Make Black Bean Quesadillas TikTok Recipe

Get full ingredients list and instructions from the recipe card below.

1. Put a tortilla on a plate and slice one side to the middle.
2. Place the cheese, peppers, seasoned beans, and lettuce each on a separate quarter. I suggest putting the cheese on the quarter that you would fold last.
3. Then fold up the tortilla counterclockwise, ending with the cheese corner.
4. Place seam side down on a hot skillet and grill for 1-2 minutes before flipping and cooking for another 1-2 minutes.
5. Repeat the process with the second tortilla, then serve and enjoy.

Tips For Success

• If your beans are not seasoned enough you can add a little bit of salsa for flavor.
• If you don’t want to slice the tortillas, a good tip is to fold the wrap in half and then in half again before opening it so you get fold marks which helps show you where to add the ingredients.
• It is better for the cheese to be on the outside so that it melts.

Delicious Variations

• Vary the beans – Feel free to use other beans like pinto beans, red kidney beans, etc to suit your taste.
• Make it spicy – You can easily add in a bit of heat via some jalapenos.

Budget Friendly Tips

• Add extra veggies like corn to bulk it out.
• Use whatever seasoned beans you have on hand.
• Feel free to double up the recipe for meal prep.

Storage And Meal Prep

• Prep Ahead – while this can be prepped ahead, it will end up soggy so I don’t recommend it. It is so quick to do that I suggest making them just before you eat them.
• Refrigerate – let cool and store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
• Reheat – reheat on a preheated skillet or in a sandwich toaster for a few minutes until the cheese has melted.

Meal Prep

• This recipe stores for 3 days, so you can eat it on the day you cook it plus 3 more days.
• Separate leftovers in single serving-sized portions, place in airtight meal prep containers and let cool completely with the lids off before sealing and storing.
• To vary it up through the week serve it up with different treats like salsa, guacamole, and serve as a side with soups.
