I felt like a bit of a genius in the kitchen last night. I pulled together quite the outrageous quesadilla and you’re going to hear about it.
It was a White Bean, Avocado, & Caramelized Onion Quesadilla and it rocked my socks off.
First, I pureed together one can of white beans (rinsed and drained), one avocado, one chipotle in adobo pepper, a sprinkle of cumin, and a squeeze of lime juice.
Next, I caramelized one small onion.
Then, I spread the prepared bean dip all over a brown rice tortilla (about 3 tablespoons or so). I then topped it with the caramelized onions, cheddar cheese, organic spinach, and banana peppers.
I warmed up the saute pan on the stove, folded over the quesadilla and got to cooking. It probably cooked for 4-5 minutes on each side, just long enough for the toppings to get hot and for the outside of the tortilla to get a little crispy.
Next, remove the quesadilla from the pan and place on plate. Use a pizza cutter or a knife to cut into three triangles.
Take some photos….
And my favorite step, devour that bad boy.
So easy, kind of random, and so delicious. A fun meatless Monday meal!
Side note: Spell check was all over this post. Apparently it doesn’t recognize quesadilla, caramelized, adobo, or pureed. Who knew?!
Now this is my kind of meal! Simple and delicious! It looks amazing!
