Leftovers Quesadilla with Bean Salad

Ingredients:
  • Tortilla wraps - I get the whole wheat wraps
  • Cheese
  • Spring onion or red onion sliced
  • Pinch of red chili powder
  • Salt to taste
  • Filling or topping: Use any topping of your choice, I love to make mine with left over sabji or veggies. I like to keep it simple with some onions, cheese, tomato sauce or ketchup some salt and pepper.

For the bean salad:

  • 1 Can or 250g of kidney beans
  • 1 Onion chopped
  • 1 Tomato chopped - remove the seeds and pulp
  • 2 tsps Lime juice
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper
  • Fresh coriander for garnishing
Method:
  • To assemble the quesadilla take a very hot flat pan or girdle.
  • Place the tortilla wrap on the pan.
  • Now there are two ways to do this:
    • You can cover the entire surface of the wrap with your toppings and place another wrap on the top.
    • Cook from one side for 5-7 mins and flip carefully.
    • Cook on the other side for 2-3 mins.
    • Remove on a cutting board & cut in between so you get two semi-circle’s. slice each semicircle 3 ways so you get 3 roughly triangular pieces.
  • Second method:
    • Place one tortilla on the pan or griddle, make sure it is very hot.
    • Add your toppings to one half or semicircle.
    • Slowly cover with the other half. Pat it down firmly.
    • Cook on both sides for 4-5 mins.
    • Remove on a cutting board & slice it 3ways so you get 3 roughly triangular pieces.
    • I usally do it this was as its easier to flip, but if you are in a hurry the first method works better.
  • To top the wrap here’s what I do:
    • Add chopped onion, cheese and any other topping I have on hand i.e. paneer, tofu, potaote etc. you can also use leftover chicken or tuna
    • Drizzle some olive oil & fold the other half over to cover the filling.
    • I brush some olive oil on the top before I flip the torilla, but you don’t have to. I just love extra everything! :) 
  • And that’s it, your quesadilla is ready.

Hello,

I tried finding a contact email but couldn't stumble upon one. By way of introduction, I work for Boom Video, a social video ad platform and Australasia's first official YouTube network. We distribute video content for a wide range of brands and exclusively represent hundreds of Australian & Kiwi content creators. It would be great to have a chat with you about our new native video player product that we are offering to great Australasia-based bloggers and site owners. The simplest way of describing the unit is that it's a video & text player that's populated with relevant content and built specifically to fit in with the look & feel of your site. (You can check out an example at http://www.drinklab.com.au) It's a simple set-and-forget upload of one short HTML tag which Boom would pay you a monthly lump sum to place on your site.

If this interests you please shoot me an email and I'll send you some more information about it all. Thanks!
