QUICK AND HEALTHY BLACK BEAN QUESADILLAS

Quick and Healthy Black Bean Quesadillas image

This recipe is from the Quick and Healthy Vol II book by Brenda Ponichtera. I added half a can of corn and sprinkled extra chopped green onion on them before I put the cheese on. I also tend to use more cheese than called for :-) This recipe makes great appetizers or a light meal.
