Quesadillas have become a staple in the American diet. Unfortunately they are filled with cheese. This option removes the cheese and with that removal goes the saturated fat and cholesterol. The bean mixture is very creamy, and is filled with good fats, protein, and fiber. You can adjust the heat by adding more or less of the chipotle pepper. It is easy to throw together quickly, and you can also add other veggies. Enjoy!

I made this yesterday and it was so good! I love how the avocado makes it extra creamy – I would totally make it again

This is great! I omitted the peppers because I didn’t have any. I added a dash of chipotle powder and a couple tablespoons of nutritional yeast. I’m a fan of putting quesadillas in the oven on low broil so that I can cook more than one at a time and it adds a nice crisp.
The great thing about this recipe is that it could even be used as a dip for tortilla chips. In fact, I added some crushed tortilla chips to the quesadillas for a bit of crunch. Another excellent recipe!
