Ingredients

Servings:

cooking spray
2 tortillas burrito-size; whole wheat flour or gluten-free
1/2 avocado ripe; mashed
1 cup black beans cooked, seasoned (drained well)
1/2 cup pepperjack cheese shredded
salsa for serving
sour cream for serving

Instructions

Spray a large skillet with the cooking spray and heat over medium-low heat. Add in one of the tortillas.
Spread the avocado evenly over the tortilla, top with the black beans and the cheese. Add in the remaining tortilla on top and press down to seal.
Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the underside of the tortilla begins to brown. Carefully flip the quesadilla, and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, until heated through and brown on the underside.
Transfer to a cutting board, let rest for 5 minutes, then slice into eight wedges. Serve with salsa and sour cream.
