Quick and Easy 30 Minute Vegetarian Quesadillas

Roasted Sweet Potato and Black Bean Quesadillas are the best sweet potato quesadillas you&#039;ll ever taste. So easy to make and most importantly incredibly delicious and filling!

Roasted Sweet Potato and Black Bean Quesadillas

Large Sweet Potatoes, (peeled

White Flour Tortilla Wraps

tsp Smoked Paprika

tsp Cumin

tsp Ground Coriander

tsp Cayenne Pepper ((or

Black Beans, (drained & rinsed)

Cheddar, (grated)

Lime, (juice only)

Salt & Black Pepper, (to taste)

Olive Oil, (as needed)

Guac

Salsa

Jalapeño

Coriander

Limes

Roast

Place your potatoes in a suitably sized oven dish and give them a good drizzle of Oil. Add in  1 tsp Smoked Paprika and Cumin, 1/2 tsp Ground Coriander, 1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper and a hefty pinch of Salt &amp; Pepper. Give them a mix to completely coat them. Pop in the oven at 200C/390F for a good 25-30mins or until softened with a caramelized outing (timings will depend on the size of your potatoes, so just be vigilant).

Mash

When the dish has cooled down a little, grab a potato masher and roughly smash your sweet potatoes. Don&#039;t mash it into oblivion, you want to keep some of the crispy parts of the potato. Place to one side.

Quesadilla

Take a Tortilla and lightly brush one side of it with Oil. Place on a griddle or regular pan oiled side face down, making sure the gas is turned OFF. Spread on half of your Sweet Potato mash, top with half your Black Beans, 1 Handful of Cheese and finish with a squeeze of Lime Juice. Place a second Tortilla on top, press down to contain the filling and lightly brush the top with Oil.

Cook

At this point turn the hob onto a medium heat and fry for around 6-8 mins on each side, or until nice and golden. If you tap on the Quesadillas it should sound slightly hollow and crunchy.

Serve

Serve with any additional toppings and sides (suggestions in ingredients). Enjoy!

Vegetarian Breakfast Quesadillas are quick and easy to make, loaded with eggs and veggies, and flavorful. Perfect for meal prep and freezer-friendly too.

Vegetarian Breakfast Quesadillas

butter, unsalted (or vegetable oil)

onion,

green pepper, diced

eggs

milk

salt

(10-inch) flour tortillas

white cheddar cheese, shredded (or cheese of your choice)

non-stick cooking spray

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-heat heat. Add onions and cook until soft and translucent, approximately 5 minutes.

Add green peppers and mushrooms and cook for 4-5 more minutes, until slightly tender.

Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until completely mixed and slightly frothy. Add the egg mixture to the skillet and cook until eggs are scrambled and cooked through, approximately 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Divide the egg filling evenly amongst the tortillas in an even layer on half of each tortilla. Sprinkle cheese on top, then fold the tortilla over to seal.

Heat a large griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Coat with non-stick spray and cook quesadillas until browned, about 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Repeat until all quesadillas are cooked.

To serve immediately: Slice into wedges and serve warm. 

To store for later: Let the quesadillas cool completely. Then wrap each quesadilla tightly in aluminum foil and place in ziplock bags. You can store the quesadillas in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. 

To reheat

Preheat oven or toaster oven to 325°F. Remove foil and heat until warmed, approximately 20 minutes if refrigerated or 30 minutes from frozen. If refrigerated, you can also reheat by heating a non-stick pan to medium heat and grilling on each side for 2-4 minutes until warm and crispy.

These quesadillas look like the perfect breakfast! Make-ahead freezer meals are the best. This recipe looks delish!

These were perfect!  Easy to make, healthy with the added vegetables, and they reheated so well.  I will definitely be making this again. Thank you!

These were a hit and requested from one picky eater for dinner tonight (had them for breakfast yesterday!). Will definitely make them again.
