Quesadilla Recipe for Your Diet Plan
Almost anything between flour tortillas has to be good - from beef to beans. But our quesadilla is packed with more flavor than calories and fat.
Cheese & Black Bean Quesadilla - 2 tortillas no more than 110 calories each (corn or flour).
Quickly place remaining tortilla on top to form quesadilla. Cut into four triangles. Quesadillas contain about 225 calories each.
Dip into 2 Tablespoons of regular sour cream; also enjoy as much salsa as you like with your quesadilla.
Also enjoy 1/2 cup of refried black beans. Whip the black beans, then add the following spices: chili powder, ground cumin, a bit of salsa and cooked onions to them.
Sprinkle on 1 Tablespoon of grated cheese - any variety. Our calorie calculation is based on using the cheese.'Fry' in pan using cooking spray until golden brown.
Remove and add 1 slice of mozzarella cheese (50 calories), 1/4 cup of your favorite salsa. 1/4 cup of drained black beans (warmed & fully cooked) and 1 cup of raw spinach to one tortilla.
