Scale

Ingredients

  • 8 medium (8 in. flour tortillas)
  • 2 cups Mexican cheese (cheddar or your favorite meltable cheese will work as well)
  • 1 cup butternut squash puree
  • 1 15 oz. can black beans, rinsed well and drained
  • 1 cup salsa (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat a large frying pan over medium heat, and spray with a little nonstick cooking spray (or grease with a smidge of butter).
  2. Place one tortilla on the griddle and spread with 1/4 cup of the puree.
  3. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup cheese. Distribute about 1/2 cup of the black beans over the cheese, and drizzle with about 3 tablespoons of salsa, if using.
  4. Sprinkle over another 1/4 cup sized layer of cheese and top with another tortilla.
  5. Allow to heat for a few minutes, checking for doneness every 1-2 minutes.
  6. Once the bottom tortilla is browned, carefully flip the quesadilla to brown the other side.
  7. Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients.
  8. Transfer the finished quesadillas to a plate and slice into wedges.
  9. Serve hot with sour cream, avocado, salsa, or any other topping you enjoy!
