Black Bean Quesadillas 

I typically cook these quesadillas in a panini machine. If you don't have one they can easily be cooked in the oven.

Makes 6
1 14 fl oz can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 medium tomato, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced small
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, minced
3 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup salsa
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
Salt and pepper
6 10-inch whole grain tortillas
Sour cream
Avocado, sliced
Extra salas
Extra cilantro, chopped
Combine all ingredients together in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Spread evenly over 1/2 of each tortilla. Fold each tortilla in half and grill in a panini machine until cheese melts. About 3-5 minutes each. Serve and pass sour cream, avocado slices, salsa and extra cilantro.

If you do not have a panini machine. Preheat oven to 425° F and place on a cookie sheet. Cook until cheese melts, about  8-10 minutes.
