WHY MAKE THIS RECIPE

Quick – these black bean foldover quesadillas can be on the table in under 15 minutes. Easy – these are simple to prepare which is why it has become a viral recipe.   Family-friendly – these vegetarian tortillas and protein-packed and well-loved.

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.

TIPS FOR SUCCESS

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.   If your beans are not seasoned enough you can add a little bit of salsa for flavor.

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.
