I don’t use a recipe for this, so you will have to bear with me.

Drain and rinse a 19oz can of black beans. In a bowl mash the beans with 1/2-1 cup salsa (hot, medium, or mild), season with salt and pepper if you feel like it.

Stir in about a cup of cheese. I use cheddar, mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or whatever is in the fridge.

Spread mixture over half of a tortilla, and fold over. At this point you could chop up some red onions, peppers, cilantro and

Arrange Quesadillas on a cookie sheet, bake at 350F for 5-10 minutes a side (time depends on how full you stuff them).

Serve with Sour cream, Salsa,                              DSC00463

guacamole and enjoy!

Sorry I don’t have any pictures of the finished product, I dove into these before I remembered.
