Santa Fe Veggie Quesadillas image

I've made this quick and colorful appetizer for many great dinner parties. Serve with fresh salsa, guacamole or sour cream as dipping sauces--or by itself. Works great on a large scale as well. Thawed and drained frozen veggies may be substituted for canned. Look for the combination of corn, red pepper and black beans in the grocery store's frozen food section.

Time 10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (12 inch) flour tortilla
¾ cup shredded Cheddar/Monterey Jack cheese blend
½ cup whole kernel corn, drained
½ cup diced red bell pepper
½ cup black beans, drained
1 chopped green onion

Steps:

  • Prepare a lightly oiled large skillet over medium heat. Place the tortilla in the skillet and flip it once to ensure an even coating of oil on both sides.
  • Allow the tortilla to heat on one side for 1 minute. Beginning at the center of the tortilla, evenly spread the cheese blend until the tortilla's entire surface is covered. Top the cheese with corn, red bell pepper, black beans and green onion. When the cheese is completely melted, carefully slide the tortilla from the pan onto a cutting board. Slice into 8 wedges and serve warm.
