Ingredients

2 teaspoons olive oil, divided

1 cup chopped onion

2 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 cup salsa

1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

1 (19-ounce) can black beans, undrained

1/3 cup minced fresh cilantro

1 (4-ounce) package goat cheese, crumbled

8 (8-inch) flour tortillas

1/2 cup fat-free sour cream (optional)

1/2 cup salsa (optional)

Directions

Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic, and saute for 3 minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup salsa, cumin, and beans, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes or until thick. Mash the bean mixture slightly with a potato masher. Remove from heat; stir in the cilantro and goat cheese.

Spread the bean mixture evenly over 4 tortillas; top each with 1 tortilla, pressing gently.

Heat 1/4 teaspoon olive oil in pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 quesadilla, and cook for 2 minutes on each side. Repeat the procedure with the remaining olive oil and quesadillas. Cut each quesadilla into 6 wedges. Serve with fat-free sour cream and 1/2 cup salsa.

Love the goat cheese! It really gives this dish a unique flavor. I added fresh thyme while the ingredients were reducing, and I think next time I make it I will add some diced red bell pepper, thrown in at the end, for some extra texture and flavor. I also served it with this salsa and loved the two together.
Thanks for sharing a great recipe!
