Williams Sonoma Black Bean & Corn Quesadillas

Recipe #300283 | 40 min | 20 min prep | SERVES 6 -8 , 6 -8 quesadillas (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: JKRunning

These are SO good. I make using the feta cheese sice I can't seem to find the cotija, but I bet they would be even better with that cheese. The recipe says they make 6 quesadillas, but I usually get 8-10.
