Quesadillas are one of
the simplest things to make, although maybe overlooked in the brunch category.
The combination of the slightly crisp tortilla and the squidgy deliciousness of
the mozzarella makes is the kind of meal that will be sure to get you out of bed.
The tomato adds a zingy-ness to this version, the avocado is cool and creamy
and the kidney beans are filling and a nice swap for the traditional baked
beans we Brits love over our breakfast. This is a cheap and thrifty meal and
takes about 15 from chopping board to plate.
La comida esta deliciosa!
Ingredients:
1 wholemeal tortilla
1 can of kidney beans in
water
A large handful of
grated mozzerella
1 large tomato
An avocado
Lettuce to garnish
You will need:
A large frying pan
Method:
1)
Prepare your
ingredients. Slice the tomato thinly, rinse your kidney beans, and peel and
mash your avocado.
2)
Lay out your tortilla
and on one half begin to layer your fillings. You can put them in any order you
like, except that it is crucial you layer cheese either side, so that when the
tortilla is folded cheese is touching both sides. The cheese is the thing that
will hold your quesadilla together when it is melted in the pan.
3)
Heat a table spoon of vegetable
oil in the frying pan and leave to warm up on a medium heat for about a minute.
4)
Gently lower your quesadilla
in to the pan and fry for 3 – 5 minutes on each side, depending on how crispy
you want it.
5)
Garnish with salad and
enjoy!
