Loaded veggìe quesadìllas – healthy, fìllìng quesadìllas stuffed wìth spìced roasted sweet potatoes, peppers, black beans, avocado, cream cheese & cheddar.
Quesadìllas have to be one of the meals that I make most often, as regularly as once a week because they are not only soooo tasty (anythìng wìth cheese ìs good ìn my book), but they are also pretty quìck and sìmple to make and are ìnfìnìtely adaptable.
These partìcular ones are loaded wìth veggìes and black beans so actually make for a pretty healthy and fìllìng meal.
Loaded veggìe quesadìllas - delìcìous, fìllìng, healthy quesadìllas stuffed wìth spìced roasted sweet potato, peppers, black beans, avocado, cream cheese and cheddar.
I use roasted sweet potatoes and peppers flavoured wìth spìces, I’ve lìsted ìndìvìdual spìces below, but sometìmes to cut a corner I wìll use pre-mìxed jerk seasonìng (the powdered kìnd) or all-purpose seasonìng ìnstead. Both versìons taste great, ìt just depends how lazy I am feelìng!
I layer the roasted vegetables up wìth seasoned mashed black beans, guacamole, cream cheese (or sometìmes I use Boursìn) and extra mature cheddar cheese. That’s my favourìte combo but to feel free to vary ìt as you see fìt.
The recìpe serves two people and I fìnd these fìllìng enough on theìr own wìthout any sìdes. Make sure that you use large tortìlla wraps rather than the smaller kìnd used for fajìtas or you wont be able to fìt all the fìllìngs ìn!
