Black bean quesadilla

Prep: 10 mins

Cook: 10 mins

Black beans are high in fibre and antioxidants making them a healthy choice for dinner and these quesadillas are great if you are in a hurry.

1 tsp olive oil

4 large mushrooms, sliced

100g black beans, rinsed

150g Mozzarella cheese, grated

4 flour tortillas

Guacamole , sliced tomatoes and red onion to garnish

Heat the oil in a saucepan over a medium heat. Gently cook the mushrooms for about 3 minutes. Remove and set aside. Reduce the heat but don’t turn it off.

Combine the beans, cheese and mushrooms together in a small bowl.

Divide the bean mix between the 4 tortillas and spoon onto one side of the tortilla. Fold it in half and press down slightly with your hand – don’t squash it.

Place the filled tortillas onto the pan that you cooked the mushrooms on and increase the heat slightly.

Cook on each side for about 3 minutes until hard.

Serve with the guacamole and salad.
