Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 small Red Onion, finely diced
  • 1 Red Bell Pepper, finely diced
  • 1 Zucchini, finely diced
  • 1 cup Corn Kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup Black Beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tsp Cumin Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Chili Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • Salt and Black Pepper to taste
  • 8 Medium Flour Tortillas (8-inch)
  • 2 cups Shredded Cheese Blend (Monterey Jack, Cheddar, or a Mexican blend)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Add the finely diced red onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until soft and translucent.
  3. Toss in the diced red bell pepper and zucchini; cook for another 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp.
  4. Stir in the corn kernels and rinsed black beans; cook for 2 more minutes.
  5. Sprinkle cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and season with salt and black pepper; cook for one more minute.
  6. Lay one tortilla flat on a plate. Add 1/4 cup of shredded cheese and spoon 1/4 of the vegetable mixture over it. Top with another 1/4 cup of cheese.
  7. Fold the tortilla over to create a half-moon shape; press down gently to seal.
  8. In a non-stick skillet, cook the quesadilla for 2-4 minutes until golden brown. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts.
  9. Remove from skillet, let rest for a minute, and slice into triangles. Serve warm.
