COWBOY CAVIAR QUESADILLAS
Cowboy caviar is a wonderful appetizer on its own, which I often serve with tortilla chips in place of salsa. But when combined in a cheesy quesadilla ... it's next level!

Steps:
- For the cowboy caviar: Preheat a grill pan over high heat or prepare a grill for high heat and oil the grill grates. Place the corn on the grill pan or grill and cook, turning, until charred in spots, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board.
- When the corn is cool enough to handle, cut off the kernels and put in a medium bowl. Add the black beans, avocado, cilantro, tomatoes and scallions.
- Put the lime juice, olive oil, garlic and cumin in a small bowl. Season with salt and whisk together. Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and gently toss until coated. Allow to sit for 30 minutes.
- For quesadillas: Lay the tortillas on a work surface. Brush one side of each tortilla with oil. Flip and top one side of each tortilla in this order: 1/4 cup cheese, a healthy helping of cowboy caviar and 1/4 cup cheese. Fold the tortillas over the filling and gently press.
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Working in two batches, cook the quesadillas until the cheese melts and the tortilla is lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side.
- Cut into wedges and serve with more cowboy caviar. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat the grill to medium.
- Arrange the peppers on the hot grill, turning them when the skin is charred and blistered, and all sides have been roasted. Remove the peppers to a bowl and set aside to cool. Scrape the flaking skins from the chiles and dice. Grill the green onions in the same way until lightly charred and wilted. Remove them from the grill to a cutting board and finely chop. Add the chiles, onion and the shredded cheeses to a medium bowl and mix well. Put 1 tortilla on top of well seasoned comal and spread it with some of the cheese mixture. Top with some Chipotle Pico de Gallo and cover with a second tortilla. After about 2 minutes carefully flip and toast the other side, about 2 to 3 minutes. The tortillas should be golden brown and the cheese should be thoroughly melted. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling. Cut the quesadillas into quarters for single servings or into eighths for appetizers.
- Combine all the ingredients in a glass bowl and mix well. It is best to let this stand for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to marry. Drain the salsa of excess liquid and refrigerate until ready to use.
