Ingredients

400g can black beans, drained, rinsed

1 ½ teaspoons smoked paprika

1 cup (120g) coarsely grated vegan cheddar

2 green onions, sliced thinly

8 x 15cm fresh white corn tortillas

lime wedges and micro coriander, to serve (optional)

Method

Combine beans and paprika in a medium bowl; using the back of a fork, coarsely mash. Add cheddar and green onion; mix well, season.

Place four of the tortillas on a clean chopping board. Spoon bean mixture evenly over tortillas. Top with remaining tortillas.

Heat a medium frying pan over medium heat; cook one quesadilla at a time, pressing down firmly with a spatula, for 5 minutes or until the tortilla is crisp and golden brown. Turn over; cook for a further 3 minutes or until cheddar has melted and tortilla is crisp. Transfer to a plate, cover to keep warm. Repeat with remaining quesadillas

Cut quesadillas in halves or quarters; serve with lime wedges, topped with micro coriander leaves, if you like.
