Black Bean & Cheese Quesadilla Triangles

✓ USDA-verified nutrition data

Ingredients

• 2 Large tortillas
• 1 cup Black beans
• 1 cup Cheddar
• 1 tsp Cumin

Steps

1. Drain and rinse the black beans. Mash half of them in a bowl with a fork along with the cumin. The mash acts as glue so the filling doesn{Q}t fall out when you flip.
2. Lay the tortillas flat and spread the mashed beans over one half of each.
3. Top with the remaining whole beans and a generous handful of shredded cheddar, then fold each tortilla in half.
4. Heat a large dry skillet over medium heat. No oil needed to start, the cheese provides the fat.
5. Cook 3 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the tortilla is golden and the cheese is fully melted and oozing.
6. Rest 2 minutes before cutting. Cutting too soon makes everything slide out.
7. Cut each into triangles and serve with salsa, sour cream, or guacamole.
