Cheesy Black Bean Quesadilla

Chef’s Note: I made the mistake of no avocado. It just needs something added to it. Very simple, might argue too simple, but it has good ratios

Ingredients

15 ounces black beans, drained and rinsed

1/2 cup shredded Monterey jack or pepper jack cheese

1/4 cup + 1/4 cup salsa

4 medium (8-inch) whole wheat tortillas

2 tsp canola oil

1 avocado

Mexican crema or sour cream, for serving

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, mix together black beans, cheese, and ¼ cup salsa.

2. Arrange tortillas on a work surface. Spread ~1/2 cup filling evenly on half of each tortilla.

3. Fold tortillas in half, gently pressing to flatten.

4. Heat 1 tsp oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 2 quesadillas and cook, turning once, until golden on both sides, about 4 minutes total. Transfer to a flat plate and cover with foil to keep warm.

5. Repeat with the remaining 1 teaspoon oil and quesadillas.

6. Serve the quesadillas with avocado, the remaining salsa, and Mexican crema/sour cream

Garlic Butter Honey BBQ Beef Tacos

Cooking Time: 30 minutes | Servings: 6

Ingredients:

1.5 lbs flank steak

2 tbsp olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp Italian seasoning

1 tsp smoked paprika

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

For the Garlic Butter Honey BBQ Sauce:

4 tbsp butter

3 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite brand)

1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

For the Tacos:

12 small corn tortillas

1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

1/4 cup chopped red onion

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

1 avocado, diced

Directions:

Prepare the Beef: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

Cook the Beef: Heat a grill or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the flank steak for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired doneness.

Make the Garlic Butter Honey BBQ Sauce: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the honey, BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, and red pepper flakes (if using). Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.

Assemble the Tacos: Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Fill each tortilla with sliced beef, a generous drizzle of the Garlic Butter Honey BBQ Sauce, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, red onion, cilantro, and diced avocado.
