Bean and Cheese Quesadillas

[Guest guest]

Tried these for dinner last night, and they were awesome! My cat

liked it too! LOL.

 

Bean and Cheese Quesadillas

 

4 whole-wheat tortillas (11-inch diameter)

1 can (16 oz.) fat-free refried beans (I used vegetarian)

1 c. reduced-fat shredded four-cheese Mexican blend

2 c. shredded lettuce

1 c. prepared salsa

1/2 avocado, peeled, pitted and diced

1/4 cup fat-free sour cream

2 T chopped fresh cilantro

 

Spread each tortilla with a portion of refried beans and top with 1/4

cup shredded cheese. Fold tortilla in half to create a half moon.

Place a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Working in

batches, cook tortillas 2 minutes on each side, or until tortillas

are lightly browned and cheese has melted. Cut each tortilla into 4

pie-shaped wedges and place on a plate. Top with even portions of

shredded lettuce, salsa, avocado, sour cream and cilantro. Makes 4

servings.
