How to Make Scout's Black Bean Quesadillas
- Mash 1 (15-ounce) can of black beans in a medium bowl until slightly chunky. Leave some whole beans for texture.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of your favorite salsa, 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred Mexican blend), and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly coat the skillet with non-stick cooking spray.
- Place one flour tortilla in the hot skillet.
- Spoon one-quarter of the black bean mixture onto one half of the tortilla, spreading it evenly to the edges.
- Fold the other half of the tortilla over the filling.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. (You can use a spatula to gently press down and promote even cooking)
- Remove from skillet and let cool slightly before cutting into wedges.
- Repeat steps 4-8 with the remaining tortillas and filling.
