The only time I put tortillas in the microwave is to warm them, and even then, they have to be wrapped in a damp paper towel and watched very carefully because they can easily become leathery and tough. So I was pleasantly surprised when I made this quesadilla in the Rangemate and the tortillas were perfect. Prep time about 5 minutes -- time in the microwave 3 minutes. Lunch ready in under 10!
Black Bean Quesadilla
Ingredients -- (makes 2 quesadillas)
1/2 can of black beans, drained
1/2 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
1 tbsp chopped cilantro
4 6” tortillas
1/2 avocado, cubed
1 tsp fresh lime juice
pinch of salt
Mash half the beans with a fork until smooth, and mix with remaining whole beans. Spread beans on tortilla, top with cheese and cilantro. Cover with second tortilla. Spray Rangemate pan with non-stick spray and place quesadilla in pan. Cover with lid and microwave for 2 minutes. Flip quesadilla and microwave for 1 minute more. Remove quesadilla from pan and cut into 4 slices. Toss cubed avocado with lime juice and salt and serve over quesadillas.
I’ll introduce the Rangemate as the Today’s Special Value, Wednesday, 6/25 at midnight.
