i'm more of the "cheese crisp" type (where you put grated cheese on a tortilla and melt it in a pan, oven or microwave) but i have to admit that this recipe i stole from realsimple is a nice touch. it's simple and yet fancy all at the same time... great if used with the mexican salad i posted.
ingredients:
1 15.5-ounce can black beans, drained
1 11-ounce can corn kernels, drained
3/4 cup salsa, drained (or you can even drain a can of diced, spicy tomatoes)
1 8-count package large flour tortillas
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded Cheddar or Monterey Jack
Heat oven to 400° F. In a medium bowl, combine the beans, corn, and salsa. Place 4 tortillas on a parchment- or foil-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with half the cheese. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the black bean mixture on top of the cheese. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and sandwich with the remaining tortillas. Bake until the cheese has melted, 5 to 7 minutes.
Transfer the quesadillas to a cutting board. Cut each into 6 wedges.
*i even added shredded chicken to mine.
