Elle's Kitchen: Black Bean/Spinach Quesadillas

 

This is a quick and healthy meal, you may

have most of the ingredients around your

kitchen.  In all honesty, I prefer a mushroom

and Mexican cheese quesadilla but they aren't

the healthiest things to eat.  So, to even things

out, have some beans and spinach every once

in a while.

 

 

Ingredients:

2 cups refried black beans

1/2 cup refrigerated fresh salsa

cooking spray

5 or 6 oz. fresh baby spinach

6 spinach tortillas

3/4 cup sharp cheddar cheese

scallions, chopped

sour cream

 

 

Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and

heat on medium-high, add spinach and cook for

about a minute, until it wilts.  Remove from heat

and set aside.

Combine refried beans and salsa in a bowl.

 

 

Spread 1/4 cup of bean/salsa mixture on

a half of each tortilla.  Top with spinach and

cheese.  Fold tortillas in half. Wipe pan and

heat over medium high, spray with cooking

spray, place 2 quesadillas at a time in pan and

cook for 2 to 3 minutes each side (do not burn).

 

 

Cut into wedges and top with sour cream,

cheese and scallions.

 

Enjoy!
