Hey there, foodie fam! Today, I'm thrilled to share one of my favorite recipes with you: Black Bean and Corn Quesadillas. These quesadillas are a go-to in my kitchen – they're simple, flavorful, and perfect for a quick and tasty meal. Trust me, once you try these cheesy, veggie-packed delights, you'll be hooked!
INGREDIENTS
- 1 15oz.can black beans
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 1/2 cup red onion
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/4 bunch fresh cilantro (about ½ cup chopped)
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 batch taco seasoning
- 10 flour tortillas
INSTRUCTIONS
- Drain the black beans and add them to a bowl along with the frozen corn (no need to thaw)
- Finely dice the onion, mince the garlic, and roughly chop the cilantro.
- Add the onion, garlic, cilantro, shredded cheddar, and taco seasoning to the bowl with the beans and corn. Stir until everything is evenly combined and coated in seasoning.
- Place a half cup of the filling on one side of each tortilla and fold over. Cook the quesadillas in a skillet over medium heat on each side until brown and crispy and the cheesy filling has melted. Slice into triangles then serve.
- To freeze the quesadillas, stack the filled and uncooked quesadillas with a piece of parchment paper between each quesadilla. Place in a freezer bag and freeze for up to three months. To reheat either microwave (for a soft quesadilla) or cook in a skillet on low heat (make sure to use low heat so that the filling has time to thaw and melt before the outside burns).
