I'm always looking for new vegetarian dinners. This is a pretty simple recipe, but the key is to get the avocado and mango at just the right ripeness...Years ago I used to eat at a restaurant that had a killer black bean quesadilla that they served on a blue corn tortilla. I've looked everywhere for blue tortillas for this recipe because I think it would really make the ingredients stand out, but for now it works pretty well with a regular flour tortilla.

Steps:
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat, lightly coated in oil.
- Dice mango and avocado- they should be small pieces, but still large enough that they keep their shape when mixed. Add a splash of lemon juice to the avocado to keep it from turning brown.
- Gently mix avocado, mango, black beans and seasonings in a small bowl.
- Put one tortilla on hot skillet or griddle and cover with the grated Monterey Jack cheese.
- Once cheese is melted, add the filling mixture and top with the second tortilla.
- Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook just long enough to lightly brown the second tortilla.
- If I'm eating this as a meal, I cut into four pieces. If I'm sharing as a side dish or appetizer, I cut into six pieces. I usually serve with a simple, fresh salsa.
