Easy Vegan Quesadilla Recipe

Step 1

First, tap this link to make the cheese (takes about 15 minutes; no need to include the optional agar). Then set aside.

Step 2

To saute the vegetables, preheat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the oil, if using, and cook the mushrooms until the moisture has released and evaporated, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the minced garlic, and cook for 1 minute. Add spinach and cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Season with a pinch of salt and set aside.

Step 3

Heat a large clean skillet over medium heat. Spread cashew cheese over one entire side of a tortilla, almost to the edges. Place the tortilla in the hot skillet cheese-side up. Arrange about ¼ of the sauteed veggies on one half of the tortilla. Fold the other half over to cover the vegetables. Cook until the underside is nicely toasted, then flip and toast the second side. Transfer to a plate, and repeat with the other 3 tortillas.

Step 4

Cut each one into 3 triangles and serve immediately.
