Grilled Black Bean and Goat Cheese Quesadillas

Date added: June 3, 2008

Easy weeknight dinner on the grill.

This recipe is deceptively simple. The smoky grill flavor adds a terrific dimension to the velvety rich beans and the creamy cheese.

Ingredients

  • 1 can canned black beans
  • 1 cup salsa
  • to taste salt
  • 4 10
  • 4 ounces soft goat cheese
  • 2 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tbsp cilantro plus extra for garnish

Recipe Method

1- Start your grill (If you don’t have a grill you could also make these quesadillas on a grill pan on your stove.)

Reserve ½ cup of salsa for serving.

2- Combine the beans and ½ cup of the salsa in a food processor. Taste test and season with salt.

3- Spray one side of each tortilla with nonstick cooking spray. Place the coated sides down and spread half the bean and salsa mix on each one. Top each with half the goat cheese and half the mozzarella, and sprinkle with half the cilantro. Place a tortilla shell over each prepared shell and mist lightly with cooking spray.

4- Grill each quesadilla until the cheese melts and the tortilla is lightly toasted, then flip and cook until the other side starts to crisp up.

5- Cut quesadillas into wedges, sprinkle with cilantro and serve with salsa. They're great served with some cilantro brown rice and grilled corn on the cob.
