Quesadillas

These were excellent! It was definitely more than your average cheese quesadilla. Eli and I both loved them. These came from Family Favorite Recipes. YUMMY stuff! My picture doesn't look as good as the one on FFR, but you can click here to see it and the original recipe. Her recipe includes zucchini, but I didn't put that in mine because we didn't have any available!

Ingredients:

1 c. frozen corn

1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped

2 Tbsp. diced jalapeno (or more if you like it hot...I used the canned pickled kind found in the mexican aisle)

1 can black beans, drained and rinsed

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. pepper

1-2 tsp. chili powder

1/2 tsp. cumin

2 c. Monterey Jack cheese, shredded

flour tortillas (if you want to be really healthy, use whole-wheat tortillas)

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except for the cheese (and tortillas of course). Place mixture in a large skillet and fry until hot. In the meantime, heat a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Place a tortilla in the pan. On half of the tortilla add a few large scoops of the corn/bean mixture and a little cheese. Fold tortilla over, then flip sides. When cheese is melted, cut in half and serve!
