INGREDIENTS
- 2 small (8-inch) flour tortillas (check for vegan-friendly option)
- 1/2 cup vegan cheese, shredded (cheddar or mozzarella style)
- 1/4 cup cooked black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1/4 cup diced bell peppers (any color)
- 1/4 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh spinach or kale
- 2-3 tablespoons salsa
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)

INSTRUCTIONS
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the cooked black beans, diced bell peppers, diced tomatoes, chopped spinach or kale, salsa, and chopped cilantro (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place one tortilla in the skillet and sprinkle half of the vegan cheese evenly over the surface of the tortilla.
- Spoon the bean and vegetable mixture over the cheese-covered tortilla, spreading it out evenly.
- Sprinkle the remaining vegan cheese over the bean and vegetable mixture.
- Place the second tortilla on top to create a quesadilla.
- Drizzle olive oil around the edges of the quesadilla in the skillet, allowing it to seep underneath.
- Cook the quesadilla for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy, and the cheese has melted.
- Once cooked, transfer the quesadilla to a cutting board and let it cool for a minute before slicing into wedges.
- Serve your Vegan Breakfast Quesadilla hot, with optional toppings such as avocado slices, vegan sour cream, and sliced jalapeños, if desired.
Enjoy this delicious and satisfying Vegan Breakfast Quesadilla as a hearty start to your day!
