Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups pulled pork
1 14-oz can black beans, rinsed and drained
2 – 2.5 cups shredded cheese (tightly packed)
4 large flour tortillas (mine were 9 inches)
Optional: pickled jalapeños (1 small can or jar)
Sour cream, salsa, guacamole for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Place a tortilla in a large non stick pan (no spray necessary) over low-medium heat. Add 1/2 cup pulled pork evenly to one half. Add a scant 1/2 cup black beans over the pulled pork, making sure not to let them spill out of the tortilla. Top with 1/2 cup shredded cheese, distributing the cheese evenly over the pulled pork and the black beans. If you like things spicy, feel free to add a few slices of jalapeño. 2. Fold the tortilla in half, gently press down with a spatula, and cook over low-medium heat for about 3-5 minutes, or until the bottom of the tortilla turns a light golden brown color. Carefully flip the tortilla (flip over the flat edge, so you don’t lose all the contents!) and cook on the other side for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, the inside is heated through, and the bottom of the tortilla is golden brown. Set aside and allow to cool briefly before slicing. 3. Repeat with the other tortillas. 4. Slice each quesadilla into thirds and serve with salsa, guacamole, sour cream – whatever you like with your quesadilla!
