Vegetable oil spray
3 six-inch vegan corn tortillas, cut in half
1 c canned baked beans
1 c shredded vegan cheese
3 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
For garnish, as desired: chopped fresh tomatoes, chopped or
sliced chilies or green bell peppers, additional shredded
vegan cheese, and/or sliced black olives
Directions:
Place 3 tortilla halves on a clean work surface. Spray one
side with oil. Turn sprayed side down. Place 1/3 cup beans
in the center of three of the tortilla halves. Top beans with
vegan cheese and cilantro. Cover with remaining tortilla halves.
Spray tops with oil. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray baking
sheet with oil. Place quesadillas on sheet and bake (no need
to turn) for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden. To barbeque
the quesadillas instead, grill on each side until golden brown
and crisp. To fry them, spray a large frying pan with oil
and cook on each side for 3 minutes, or until each side is
golden. Serve with garnish, as desired.
Makes 3 Whole Quesadilla Servings.
