Ingredients

  • 15 oz. can black beans
  • 2 roma tomatoes
  • 2-3 green onions
  • 1/2 cup cooked sweet corn
  • 1/2 cup vegan shredded cheese (melt-able)
  • 1/4 tsp. ground cumin (more/less to taste)
  • 4 large tortillas (gluten-free if desired)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Rinse and drain black beans. Finely chop tomatoes and green onions.

  2. 2

    Place a tortilla on a skillet. (I leave the stove turned off until assembly is complete.)

  3. 3

    On one half of the quesadilla, add a light layer of cheese. Then add a layer of beans, tomatoes, green onion, and corn.

  4. 4

    Add another layer of cheese on top to help “glue” both sides together. Sprinkle a bit of cumin, then fold over the top half of quesadilla and gently press down.

  5. 5

    On a flat skillet over medium heat, warm the quesadillas for 3-4 minutes on each side or until heated through. Repeat for the rest of the quesadillas.

  6. 6

    Serve as is, or with your favorite guacamole or salsa.
