A sort of a quesadilla variant that I have just made for myself.
Serves two.
- Ingredients (Core)
- 4 tortillas
- 1 can refried beans
- ½ can chopped tomatoes
- 1 little gem lettuce
- Some grated cheese
- Ingredients (Recommended)
- A handful of baby tomatoes, halved
- A sprinkling of ground coriander
- A sprinkling of ground cumin
- A bit of diced onion
- A bit of diced red pepper
- Ingredients (Optional)
- A bit of diced garlic
- A bit of diced chilli pepper
- A couple of blobs of sour cream
Heat up the refried beans and chopped tomatoes, with the baby tomatoes, coriander, and cumin, if you fancy.
Sprinkle the grated cheese across two of the tortillas. Add the onion and red pepper for a nice bit of texture and taste; for a bit of a kick throw on some garlic and/or chilli. Use as much cheese and veg as you like – I have it so that the tortilla is just barely covered, and not right to the edges, as that makes cooking it harder. Cover each loaded tortilla with another one, then add (in turn) to a heated frying pan (no oil). Flip after a few minutes.
Scatter the lettuce leaves on a couple of plates, then place the quesadillas (i.e. the tortilla sandwiches) on top of the lettuce. Pour the refried bean mixture over the top, and add a bit of sour cream if that’s your bag.
