Ingredients

  • 1 (15 ounce) can great Northern beans, drained and rinsed
  • ¼ cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/3 cup nutritional yeast
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • ¼ teaspoon chili powder
  • salt to taste
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
  • ½ cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
  • 8 whole grain tortillas
  • cooking spray

Directions

Step 1
Blend great Northern beans, 3/4 cup tomatoes, and garlic in a food processor until smooth; add nutritional yeast, cumin, chili powder, salt, and red pepper flakes and blend again.

Step 2
Transfer bean mixture to a bowl. Stir black beans and 1/4 cup tomatoes into bean mixture.

Step 3
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 4
Place a tortilla in the hot oil. Spread about 1/4 cup filling onto the tortilla.

Step 5
Place another tortilla on top of filling; cook until filling is warmed, about 10 minutes.

Step 6
Spray the top tortilla with cooking spray and flip quesadilla to cook the second side until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

Tip

Aluminum foil helps keep food moist, ensures it cooks evenly, keeps leftovers fresh, and makes clean-up easy.
