Description

These Rice and Bean Quesadillas are so easy to make and use mostly pantry ingredients!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil-

  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

  • Shredded cheese, I used sharp cheddar

Instructions

  1. Heat a large pan over medium heat and add olive oil, rice, beans and spices.  Cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.
  2. Lay your tortilla on a cutting board and and sprinkle one half with a small handful of cheese 1/4 – 1/3 cup and then top with an equal amount of rice and bean mixture.  Fold tortilla over and place in a lightly greased pan.  Cook quesadilla until cheese is melted and each side of the tortilla is golden brown, flipping once.
