Vegetarian Quesadilla

Quesadillas are one of our favourite Mexican dishes! The whole family will love our new Vegetarian Quesadilla! It’s packed with veggies and is delicious served with a dollop of sour cream and guacamole. If you want to add in meat, try some chicken or beef mince!

Ingredients

• 8 large tortillas

• 1 can black beans, rinsed & drained

• 1 cup corn kernels

• 1 red capsicum, diced

• 1/3 cup coriander, finely chopped

• 1/3 cup red onion, finely diced

• 2 tsp cumin

• Salt & pepper, to taste

• 2 cups grated cheese (i.e. cheddar or mozzarella)

• Guacamole, to serve

• Sour cream, to serve

Method

1. In a large bowl, combine the black beans, corn, capsicum, coriander, red onion, cumin. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

2. Preheat oven to 180°C, then line 2 large baking trays with baking paper.

3. To build each quesadilla, sprinkle 3 tbs of grated cheese over half of the tortilla. Spread half a cup of the veggie mixture on top of the cheese, then sprinkle another 3 tbsp of cheese on top. Fold the other half of the tortilla on top, pressing down gently to make a half moon shape.

4. Repeat step 3 to make the remaining quesadillas.

5. Bake quesadillas in the oven for approx. 20 mins.

6. Remove the quesadillas from the oven, and allow them to rest for 5 mins before cutting each in half using a serrated knife.

7. Serve with guacamole and sour cream, if desired.
