Ingredients
  

4 small flour tortillas

1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack blends well)

1/2 cup black beans, rinsed and drained

1/2 cup bell peppers (your choice of red, yellow, or green), finely diced

1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped

1/2 cup corn (freshly harvested or canned)

1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

1/4 teaspoon chili powder

Salt and black pepper, to taste

Olive oil or cooking spray (for toasting)

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish, optional)

Salsa or guacamole (for serving, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Veggie Filling: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the rinsed black beans, diced bell peppers, finely chopped red onion, corn, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

    Assemble the Quesadilla Toasties: Place a tortilla on a clean, flat surface. Sprinkle a layer of shredded cheese over one half of the tortilla. Top this cheese layer generously with the prepared veggie mixture. Add another sprinkle of cheese on top of the veggies for extra gooiness. Carefully fold the tortilla in half, creating a half-moon shape. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and filling.

      Toast the Quesadilla: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly coat the skillet with olive oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking. Place one of the assembled quesadillas in the skillet and toast for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortillas are golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is fully melted. Repeat the toasting process for the remaining quesadillas.

        Slice and Serve: Once golden and crisp, remove each quesadilla from the skillet and let them sit for about a minute to cool slightly. Use a sharp knife to slice the quesadillas into wedges or triangles. Optionally, sprinkle chopped fresh cilantro on top for an aromatic finish. Serve the quesadilla toasties warm with a side of salsa or guacamole for dipping.

          Enjoy: Take a bite of your scrumptious Cheesy Mini Veggie Quesadilla Toasties and revel in the delightful fusion of melted cheese and vibrant veggies!
