Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 recipe Spicy Chipotle Sauce
  • 15-ounce can black beans
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 avocados
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
  • 1 cup corn kernels, frozen or fresh
  • 8 whole wheat tortillas (or gluten-free tortillas)
  • Cilantro, for a garnish

Instruction

  • Make the Spicy Chipotle Sauce.
  • Drain and rinse the black beans. In a small bowl, stir them together with the cumin, olive oil, and kosher salt.
  • Thinly slice the avocados (see the video instructions).
  • For each quesadilla, place a tortilla on a plate and evenly spread with cheese, black beans, corn, avocado slices, chipotle sauce, then additional cheese.
  • Heat a large non-stick skillet* over medium heat for a few minutes. Place the loaded tortilla on the griddle and add another tortilla on top. Cook until browned, then flip and cook until browned on the other side, a few minutes per side.
  • Remove the tortilla and cut into wedges with a pizza cutter. If making several quesadillas at once, keep them warm in a 300°F oven until ready to serve. Serve garnished with chopped cilantro and additional chipotle sauce.
