This tomato and black bean mixture is so flavorful warmed up between layers of cheese and a crispy tortilla. Leftovers are also wonderful as a refreshing salsa with tortilla chips or rolled up in a burrito. If you’re looking for even more protein, go ahead and throw in some cooked chicken.
Mix all ingedients except cheese and tortillas. This can be eaten immediately, or let it sit for a few hours or overnight to really bring out the flavors. Feel free to use dried cilantro if you don’t have fresh, and add more cayenne if you would like it with more heat.
To make the quesadillas, heat up a lightly sprayed nonstick pan and place a tortilla in it. Sprinkle cheese over half the tortilla, then cover that half with the tomato black bean mixture. Add another layer of cheese and then fold the other half of the tortilla on top. Cook for a few minutes, and then flip and cook the other side. This should be long enough to get it crispy golden outside, while melting the cheese and warming up the salsa on the inside.
Save any leftovers to eat as salsa, a topping for a Mexican salad, in a burrito, or to make more quesadillas!

This was ok for us, but not great. We made it last night in the quesadilla form, but I can see it being much better had we: 1. allowed the flavors to meld more and 2. used it has a salsa instead of the stuffing in the quesadilla. Not quite sure why it didn’t work for us that way, but looking forward to using it as a salsa for a snack tonight.
