The best vegan quesadillas stuffed with black beans and corn, guacamole and vegan cheese. Filling, hearty, cheesy and so easy to make.
📝 Ingredients
- 1/2 Medium Onion (White, Yellow or Brown, Chopped)
- 1/2 teaspoon Crushed Garlic
- 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1/4 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon Ground Cumin
- 15 ounce Can Black Beans (Drained)
- 15 ounce Can Corn (Drained)
- Sea Salt and Black Pepper (To Taste)
- 2 Medium Avocados
- 1/2 Small Fresh Lime (Squeezed)
- Sea Salt and Black Pepper (To Taste)
- 1 1/4 cups Grated Vegan Cheese
- 8 Tortillas (Wheat or Corn)
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1Prepare your black bean and corn mix. Add the chopped onion and crushed garlic to a frying pan with the olive oil. Add the cayenne pepper and cumin and sauté until the onions are softened. Add in the black beans and corn and sauté until warmed and well mixed with the spices. Add in sea salt and black pepper to taste. Set aside.
- 2Prepare your guacamole. Mash the avocados, squeeze in the lime juice and add sea salt and black pepper to taste. Set side.
- 3Grate the vegan cheese and set aside.
- 4Heat up a frying pan (dry, no oil) and then add 1 tortilla to the pan. Let it toast a little on one side until very slightly browned, and then flip it. Add some black bean and corn mix to one side of the tortilla, topped with some guacamole and then some vegan cheese. Fold the tortilla over to close it. Pat down with your spatula so that the top sticks. Cook for a couple of minutes before flipping and cooking for a couple of minutes on the other side so that both sides are nicely browned and toasted.
- 5Remove from the pan and repeat with the next tortilla until all 8 tortillas are finished.
- 6Cut each quesadilla in half (or even into quarters if you prefer) and serve.
